## About this tender

Bolsover Back Hills Steps & Rail Repairs.

Bolsover Back Hills Nature Walk is situated on the embankment of the Hill side that runs parallel with High Street, Bolsover S44 6HF and is immediately accessed by "Surprise View" that is located at the top of Cotton Street.

The steps are approximately 15 years old, while some repairs have been carried out over the last few years due to the continued deterioration, it is now deemed that repairs would be so invasive that complete replacement with more permanent materials would be the way forward to increase longevity. Some of the handrails have been stolen and been replaced in the past and a similar repair would be acceptable to repair.

The steps are now almost washed or rotten away deeming them unsafe and it is the intention to replace the existing treads and risers that are constructed out of timber & road stone (concrete screed) be replaced with either cast concrete steps in situe or concrete units to form treads and risers for the new steps.

This information and schedule of works is to be read in conjunction with the photographs attached and it is import that anyone tendering for the project, visits site to see the works required and the restrictions regards delivering materials to the site.

The original handrails are stainless steel and repairs have been carried out by means of an over collar sleeve with a welded pin detail drilled and fixed with an anti-vandal locking nut, in mild steel and either galvanised or fully coated in primer & Galva Royd galvanising paint.

Old Bolsover Town Council will advise of a suitable position for a skip location to remove waste timber etc from the steps.

The handrails can be repaired by "on site welding" but please note, the original rails are Stainless Steel and difficult to weld stainless steel due to location.

To apply complete the attached tender document and return to Old Bolsover Town Council, Town Hall, Cotton Street, Bolsover, S44 6HA or email to
