Description

The Council is seeking to procure a Contractor under an NEC3 ECC (Design and Build) Contract for the construction of a new section of Road that links St. Austell to the A30 via the China Clay area. The Contractor will be expected to take a pre- planning reference design and produce a detailed design as well as undertaking the subsequent construction of the road.

The preferred route will be 6.2 kilometres in length and will comprise a 10m wide single carriageway designed to a 60 mph design speed with climbing lanes on steeper gradient sections. The route requires 42.8 hectares of land for construction and total scheme cost is estimated at £84.8 million.

Cornwall Council will be holding a Meet the Buyer Day on Wednesday 16th January 2019 at ESAM in St Austell.
The Council will give a presentation outlining the project, its outcomes and potential difficulties as well as explaining the procurement process and timetable for the invitation to tender that will be issued in 2019. There will be the opportunity to view materials and to ask questions at the end of the presentation.

If you will be attending, please contact Chloe Lorraine, Chloe.Lorraine@cornwall.gov.uk to confirm attendance and timings.

For those who cannot attend, all presentation materials and minutes of the meeting will be made available at the end of the meet the buyer day.
