## About this tender

Swale Borough Council is inviting Expressions of Interest to tender for Queenborough & Rushenden, Klondyke Site - Remedial and Land Raising Works.

Queenborough and Rushenden is a major development site within Homes England's Economic Assets Programme and a key component of the Kent and Medway Stewardship Plan. Homes England have acquired the Twyford site, and together with the Klondyke and Mill sites represents a total of 26 hectares to be brought forward for mixed-use regeneration. In conjunction with the Caradon site to the south, these sites will provide 1,100 new homes and circa 180,000 m2 of employment space on the Isle of Sheppey in North Kent.

The remediation and land raising of the Klondyke site represents the final piece of capital works to bring forward the regeneration ambitions - to create a remediated and stable development platform that has been land raised out of flood plain. The project is being funded via the Housing and Infrastructure Fund (HIF) which is administered by Homes England. The works ultimately assist in the delivery of the Queenborough and Rushenden Masterplan.
