A66 Northern Trans-Pennine (NTP) - Ullswater Community College Construction & Maintenance

Kier Transportation are looking to engage experienced and qualified contractors to carry out Earthworks, Drainage, and Maintenance works pertaining to our Ullswater Community College package.

The works include constructing a 106m x 68m natural turf rugby pitch along with associated pitch drainage system located at Ullswater Community College, Penrith. Once the construction of the rugby pitch has been completed, a 12 month maintenance period will also be undertaken by the chosen contractor before handing over to the client.

The A66 upgrade will see single-lane sections of the 80km stretch between the M6 and the A1 made into dual carriageway, while key junctions will be improved. The A66 project is to be delivered in collaboration by three Tier 1 contractors, Balfour Beatty, Kier and Aureos.

We will use the Build UK Common Assessment Criteria (CAS) to ensure a consistent minimum business competence. If your company possesses necessary qualifications and is interested in bidding for this project, please email Transportationprocurement@kier.co.uk with your company's portfolio, relevant experience, and references for further evaluation.
