Description

Sprowston Town Council is tendering for a suitable contractor to design and install a new high quality skatepark facility on development land off Blue Boar Lane, Norwich. The project will include: • Total Budget £345,000 +VAT. (Following the tender opening and feedback from the project team, the Council opted to increase the budget by 15% from the original amount of £300,000 which comprised £250,000 plus a further £50,00 to achieve a "Wow" factor). • Full design and build of a bespoke high quality skatepark with a footprint of approximately of 50m x 50m. • Obtaining of any necessary planning permissions, if required (although we have been advised by the Planning Authority that the skatepark can be built under Permitted Development). • Any further public consultation as may be deemed advisable/necessary. • Associated works including drainage, surfacing and street furniture as required. (Following feedback from the project team, the Council removed the requirement to provide lighting).
