## About this tender

The Client, the Chesterfield Canal Trust (CCT), aims to promote the full restoration and appropriate development of the Chesterfield Canal. At the height of its dereliction, the canal had been reduced from a navigable length of 46 miles and 65 locks to only 26 miles and 16 locks. Since 1989, 12 miles and 37 locks have been restored, with only a 8.5-mile gap between Staveley and Kiveton remaining.

In 2019, the UK Government launched the Towns Fund, a scheme whereby 101 towns around the country were invited to bid for up to £25m for regeneration projects. Staveley was selected as one of those towns to receive funding and a portion of the £25m was dedicated to the canal restoration.

### Scope of Scheme

This procurement process is in relation to the canal restoration works that extend from Staveley to the Doe Lea Valley and include the following:

- The design and construction of a new bridleway bridge (including abutments) for the Trans-Pennine Trail (TPT Bridge),
- The detailed design and construction of an earthwork embankment to form the new canal channel for c850m, including water supply,
- The detailed design and construction of a new lock structure (Railway Lock),
- The detailed design and construction of a new vehicular bridge structure (Bellhouse Bridge),
- The detailed design and construction or upgrades of 3km of footways and bridleways, including those to the TPT Bridge,
- All necessary 'temporary works' design and installation associated with all of the above

The contract will be a Design and Build, NEC4 Engineering and Construction Contract (ECC), Option A.
