Description

Devon County Council would like to procure the services of a timber mill for the A382 improvements project. The project has received additional funding through ADEPT's Live Labs 2 programme with the funding being used for carbon reduction initiatives across the scheme. As part of this high profile project we aim for as much of the felled timber as possible to be used in the project for items such as fencing and setting out boards. As such we would like the timber mill to collect the felled trees from site, process them into products including any treatment and store them until needed on site. Full details of the scheme and requirements are included in the tender documents.
