Description

Harpenden Town Council is finalising arrangements to take ownership of both the Roundwood Lane and Wood End Open Spaces from St Albans City & District Council in Autumn 2021. The Town Council wishes to quickly deliver on its vision to redevelop the play areas at these sites in time for Easter school holidays 2022.

We have been consulting with the Roundwood Lane and Wood End Play Area Working Party, to develop a vision for the improvement of each of the children's play areas. In-depth community engagement has been undertaken to find out what is good about the play areas at the moment and what improvements should be considered in the future.

During the community engagement exercises we received over 265 responses. These findings have been built into this tender document.

Harpenden Town Council is now looking to deliver the improvements identified by the community and has a budget of £80,000 per play area to do so.

We are now seeking tenders for the provision and installation of play equipment from suitably experienced and qualified contractors.
