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 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 NOTE (14/08/23): This scope of work previously included the design and construction of a new bridleway bridge over the Trans-Pennine Trail. This has now been removed and will be the subject of a separate procurement exercise alongside site enabling works, to be advertised on Contracts Finder in mid-September 2023. The contract will be a Design and Build, NEC4 Engineering and Construction Contract (ECC), Option A. This is a two-stage process: Stage 1 - Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (PQQ) ### Stage 2 - Invitation to Tender (ITT) Stage 1 will select 6 contractors to be invited to proceed to Stage 2.
