### Scope of Work

The Wincham Parish Council (WPC) wish to upgrade the Linnards Lane Playing Field. The plan includes the resurfacing and widening of the existing path and installing chicane fencing at the Ashgate Lane entrance.

This WPC is looking for this project to be completed in the summer of 2026.

The WPC has a Project Strategy with a number of key steps in order to ensure that the correct level of planning and preparation goes into the plan. Part of this is to ensure that the funding, scope of work, Quality and Health and Safety (H&amp;S) is adequately controlled and managed.

### Widen and resurface existing path to modern standard

The existing path is estimated to be 216 metres in length and runs along the northern part of the playing field from the Birch Grove entrance to the Ashgate Lane entrance and then turnSee Figure 1 which provides an aerial view of the playing field.

The requirement is for the refurbished path to be accessible to people with limited mobility, wheelchair users and people with sensory impairments.

The path width shall be such that there is room for two wheelchairs, or two people, side by side. Any gradient steeper than 1:20 is considered a ramp and therefore the path should be adjusted accordingly.

The Construction Contractor shall temporarily remove any existing park benches and waste bins away from the area of work and subsequently replace them in suitable locations, to be agreed with WPC.

The Construction Contractor shall remove the vegetation and topsoil to widen the path to 2.5 metre width (the topsoil is to be stockpiled on site for later use). The Contractor shall break out a trench adjacent to the existing path to create the wider path. The arisings shall be taken off site by the Contractor who shall comply with all the necessary Environmental Requirements necessary for the scope of work including Waste Acceptance Criteria (WAC) testing for generated material if exported.

The path and any ramps should have a slight cross-fall to shed water. However, cambers present difficulties for both wheelchair users and people with visual impairments. Therefore, this is to be minimize.

Surfaces should be well constructed and should give firm, non-slip, level access. Concrete edging is to be provided along the whole length of the path.

On completion of the path works the Contractor shall make good all of the grass areas that have been damaged to an acceptable state to be agreed with the WPC or their representative.

### Health and Safety

The Contractor shall identify all the Health and Safety requirements applicable to this project. This shall cover, but not limited to, the following:

- Visiting Supervisor/Inspections

- Emergency access provision? To double up as access for the works

- Security

CDM site requirements shall cover, but not limited to, the following:

- Materials lay down area/protection
- Herras fencing
- Safety signage to fencing
- Welfare self-contained
- Toilet self-contained, plus emptying

The Contractor shall advise the WPC of any public access restrictions required during the implementation of the works.

### Environmental

The Contractor shall comply with all the necessary Environmental Requirements necessary for the scope of work including Waste Acceptance Criteria (WAC) testing for generated material if exported.
