## About this tender

Madeira Terrace is a well-known and much-loved Brighton and Hove Landmark. At 865m

long in total it is one of the longest cast-iron structures in the world and an admired piece of

Victorian architecture, integral to the Eastern Seafront. It is also a significant Grade 2\* listed

structure within the rich heritage context of the wider coastal city. Phase 1 of the Madeira

Terrace Restoration project encompasses 40nr arches sitting between the Royal Crescent

steps and the Shelter Hall / Concord 2.

The cast iron structure forms a backbone describing the historic development of the

seafront. Addressing the sea and the beach firmly braced against the rising East Cliff wall

rising behind. It is a 'backdrop': designed and intended to be used and inhabited by the

residents of the city for all manner of events and social occasions; for quiet enjoyment,

outdoor exercise and for viewing.

The structure is now deemed unsafe and public access has not been possible for a number of

years, due its condition.

The Phase 1 project includes the following elements of works:

â&#128;¢ Conservation and repair of the historic cast iron structure.

â&#128;¢ Conservation and management of the historic Japanese Spindle green wall \[dating from

1872\], and other planting associated with the Green Wall.

â&#128;¢ Repairs to the facing of the east cliff-wall (a designated highways structure) to ensure

public safety; and re-presentation of its surface to visually unify and present a more attractive backdrop to the restored structure.

â&#128;¢ Public realm landscaping to both the terrace deck above and the promenade walkway

below, including new hard surfacing, soft landscaping and street furniture.

â&#128;¢ Local improvement to Madeira Drive, via new pedestrian crossing points.

â&#128;¢ New lighting and servicing infrastructure

â&#128;¢ Repairs and upgrades to the existing lift mechanism within the Shelter Hall / Concorde 2

building, to allow its continued historic function as the original means of step-free access to

the terrace.

â&#128;¢ A new external public lift
