## About this tender

Cornwall Council seeks experienced and accredited suppliers to submit a quotation for the lifting and repair of the outer Sea Lock gates, on site, at Bude in North Cornwall.

One of the two outer lock gates at Bude Sea Lock needs repairing as the lower pin seems to have come away from the hinge. As a result of this, the sea lock has been inoperable for the last year. This work will require the lift out each of the two outer gates, using suitable craneage, and to replace and/or repair the lower hinge (s). The optimum time to do this is within the next month, before the main tourist season commences, to minimise inconvenience etc.

The Gates weigh approximately 15 tonnes each.

The access to the site would be via the Southern access road and following close liaison with the Harbourmaster at Bude, whom the successful supplier will need to closely liaise with to seal off and safely secure the site before work can commence.

Suppliers are recommended to visit the site, prior to submitting a quotation, and should, in the first instance, contact Mr Andy Brigden, Maritime Manager on 07790050554 to make the necessary arrangements. Any further technical queries, not covered within the detailed specification, should be raised via this Portal. Further details regarding this opportunity can be accessed via the supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk website, where this opportunity is available under project reference DN469690.
