What is being bought

Published requirement description

Emberton Country Park covers over 200 acres of attractive parkland in the village of Emberton, close to the historic town of Olney and just a few miles Northeast of Milton Keynes. The site was transformed by Milton Keynes City Council into England’s first country park and offers something for everyone. There are wooded glades and meadows and children’s play areas. From birdwatching to triathlons, camping, picnicking or a walk in the countryside. The Park is open 365 days of the year to the public from dawn until dusk.

The works consist of a series of foul and surface water drain repairs and one replacement of a drain run (section 43 MH115 to MH119). The repairs are to be predominately Localise Structural Repair (LSR) to restore the structural integrity of the drain runs. These Localised Structural Repairs are to be undertaken where there are seal cracks and fractures, displaced and open joints re-rounding of deformed pipes, root removal via patch repairs and linings.
