Embedded rock ramp fish pass at the weir downstream Pincroft weir

The Opening Up the River Douglas programme (OUR Douglas), funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), aims to specifically address and improve fish passage in the Douglas Catchment, creating a fish easement which allows for the passage of all fish species at all times. As such the project is advertising this contract opportunity for the construction of an embedded rock ramp fish pass at the weir downstream of Pincroft. Although these works are below the thresholds for a full procurement procedure under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 -RRT is still under and obligation to ensure compliance with EU principles of transparency, equality and non-discrimination, as such RRT is conducting a formal tender process in which all bidders will be treated equally, with no discrimination and through a transparent process.
