Madeley Parish Council wishes to employ a Principal Contractor to carry out the supply and installation of new play equipment and safety surfacing for an age range of toddlers to teenager.
The design brief:
Supply and install new play equipment and safety surfacing suitable for children aged from toddler to twelve/thirteen years. The design of the play area must include equipment which complies with the full identified age range. You are required to show how your chosen play equipment accommodates this age range.
The playground equipment should fit in with the rural aspect of the village. The playground equipment should include the following criteria/activities: Swinging, Climbing, Sliding, imagination play and sensory play. The playground should have a "centrepiece" item situated inside the play area boundary.
The play equipment must also comply with the DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) i.e. all-inclusive play and accessibility.
The entire play area must be enclosed with suitable fencing and access gate. The following equipment should be incorporated into the design:
● Swings
● Climbing
● Slides
● Imagination Play
● Sensory Play
Preparation and groundworks:
Excess materials, spoil and surfacing from excavations must be disposed of at a licenced recycling centre at the Contractor's cost.
The Contractor must provide skips when required and secure all skips behind Heras security fencing when unattended to avoid fly tipping.
Ownership, liability and responsibility for insurance of the play area and installation works will lie with the Contractor until a satisfactory RoSPA Post-Installation Report has been accepted by Madeley Parish Council. This will be confirmed in writing on the day of the handover of the site by the Parish Clerk or nominated representative and the Contractor.
