To refurbish the outdoor gym with equipment more suited to the local area.

Where required wetpour to be installed underneath equipment that has a critical fall height.

The new gym equipment must be predominantly metal in construction and be sturdy enough for unsupervised use in an open park setting that is known for vandalism. For example, callisthenics bars for muscle-based workouts and floor graphics for cardiovascular workouts, rather than equipment with moving parts. Where possible the design should cater for people of a wide demographic background but not to the detriment of ensuing the outdoor gym's robustness.

The wording and artwork will be provided by the Council. This sign will be in addition to any information sign proposed by the contractor in connection with the individual gym equipment.

The Contractor shall arrange and pay for a RoSPA / RPI inspection and report to be handed to LBH at the end of the construction.

Full reinstatement of the grassed areas will have to be carried out, as well as any repairs to damage caused, upon completion.

It is not expected that the works will involve a CDM, although method statements and risk assessments will be required from the Principal Contractor prior to a start on site.

A clear description of each site, including drawings, sufficient that the Council can fully understand the Contractor's intended design and costing of the works will be required.

Project must be completed within a 5 week period from the moment work begins on site.
