## About this tender

GRT has secured funding from NatureScot’s Nature Restoration Fund for capital works at a site along the Luce catchment in South West Scotland (Fig. 1), at Dalnigap, New Luce, Dumfries and Galloway, DG8 0AZ, NX 13494 71764. In the late 1800’s a channel was cut through an area of raised peatland at this site, through which the Main Water of Luce was diverted.

Detailed designs and engineering specifications have been produced to now return the river channel back to its original natural course. This involves excavating parts of the old channel (850m long), blocking off the artificial channel and protecting the eroding peatland face.

This project will realign a 550m section of the main stem of the Water of Luce, providing significant ecological and hydrological benefits, extending it into an 850m multi-channelled river corridor with wider connections to the historic floodplain and surrounding peatland.

GFT is seeking a suitable qualified and experienced contractor to conduct the capital works at this site.
