two.2.4) Description of the procurement
This tender is made up of two parts;
(i) the cutting of highway verges and amenity grass areas
(ii) the cutting of gateway roads and hedges and the provision of traffic management
Both parts of the tender have different specifications so it is important that the tenderer make themselves aware of the different elements within both specifications. Both parts of the tender will be priced for the tender to be deemed valid and the Council will choose the most economically advantageous package.
If your organisation is unfamiliar with the borough, plans for the gateway roads and hedges are attached to these tender documents. For the grass cutting of highway verges and amenity areas (as there are over 200 hundred individual sites of varying sizes) a desk set of plans is available for inspection at Willows Lane depot in Accrington which indicates where each area to be maintained is located.
I am also happy to make one of my staff available for a maximum of one day to guide a representative of your organisation around the borough so they can orientate themselves with the size and locations of areas within the contract.
