Description

Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council is named after the largest town and the smallest village. The borough covers an area of over 245 square miles in North Hampshire of which over 90% is rural. The rest of the borough is made up of villages, rural hamlets and countryside that includes 47 conservation areas.
The Environmental Services Operations team maintains most of the green spaces in the borough, including, but not limited to sport pitches, parks and open spaces, play areas and roadside verges. The council has a requirement to replace the two agricultural tractors with loaders that are used for grass cutting large areas as well as general landscaping and light agricultural duties. The replacements required are of similar size to the existing tractors but with one now required to be a lager engine size to facilitate better road speed on inclines. Part exchange on one of the existing tractors would be required
