II.1.4) Short description
The authority wishes to appoint a provider for design and construction to bypass the level crossing at King’s Dyke, Whittlesey. The works will include 1 km of new road on structural embankments, a new bridge over the railway and accommodating works. The scheme was previously awarded as a two-stage design and build contract, for which a detailed design was completed. Cost estimates increased over time and so the authority is now seeking improved outcomes from the market. The provider will be required to take responsibility for the existing detailed design, but may seek approval from the authority as to where it may be improved. The authority therefore welcomes value engineering exercises from the provider but notes that existing planning consent, site and technical constraints must be all upheld in any proposals which may come forward. Non-material amendments may be considered.
