Some of these improvements would also assist with walking and cycling in the area. The A1 was recently improved to motorway standard which involved some equestrian improvements; but the design was completed prior to RIS 1 and our greater ambitions being set out around integration and supporting walkers, cyclists and horse riders. Concerns have been raised by local and national stakeholders that the constructed scheme has missed opportunities to provide joined up and attractive routes for horse riders that connect up wider communities. This application seeks funding for a short feasibility study to examine readily deliverable options to increase the quality of equestrian provision in this area prior to full handover into operations. ## CPV classification Research and development services and related consultancy services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/7fc651f9-0749-4eee-9f1a-b82eaac028da) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
