## About this tender

The Council is procuring a contract to undertake section of the

pedestrian Guard Rail replacement over the pumping station

wall at West Tower Street Bridge.

West Tower Street Bridge carries the A595 County Road

(Castle Way) across West Tower Street in Carlisle.

A general breakdown of the protective paint system on the

existing pedestrian Guard Rail has led to various instances of

severe corrosion of the steelwork. As a result, replacing the

section of the pedestrian Guard Rail under the bridge is

necessary.

The work includes the design and replacement of,

approximately, 80m of pedestrian guardrail above the

Pumping Station under the West Tower Street Bridge.

In 2023, the 4 number posts above the Pumping Station were

temporarily repaired.

The project is to be let as a Build contract with the contractor

designed elements set out in appendix 1/10 of the

specification

## CPV classification
