                "description": "Kent County Council (KCC) is the largest local authority in England covering an area\nof 3,500 square kilometres. It has an annual expenditure of over £1bn on goods and services\nand a population of 1.6m. The Council provides a wide range of personal and strategic\nservices on behalf of its residents, operating in partnership with the NHS Kent and Medway\nClinical Commissioning Group, 12 district councils, and 289 parish/town councils. KCC\nconsists of four directorates:\n- Adult Social Care and Health;\n- Children, Young People and Education;\n- Growth, Environment and Transport; and\n- Strategic and Corporate Services.\nThis service is being commissioned on behalf of the Growth, Environment and Transport\ndirectorate.\nThe scheme requires the construction of a new tunnel on the Bead Road in Kent. Fastrack Bean Road Tunnel is broadly a new 75m long tunnel (technically an underpass due to short length) through the chalk spine under the B255 Bean Road between Whitecliffe (former Eastern Quarry) and Bluewater Shopping Centre, serving to directly connect the shopping centre to the new Whitecliffe development and Ebbsfleet International Railway Station. It will form part of the Fastrack bus rapid transit system within Kent Thameside. The tunnel will house a 3.5m wide Bi-directional Fastrack busway linking Whitecliffe and Bluewater, as well as providing a combined footway / cycleway and footway linking the Whitecliffe and Bluewater as part of the Ebbsfleet Garden City green corridor network.\nProject value is £25.5m with construction cost budget of circa. £20.43m",
