Provision of Consultancy Services (Leigh Port Regeneration) via ESPO Framework 664_21 Consultancy Services (Lot 8g - Regeneration and Regional Development)

Award outcome

Description

Provision of value engineering and principal designer duties with the aim of boosting the cockling industry and safeguarding the future of the port. Works will renovate the quay and improve access to the area. A new quay wall will offer safer access and egress to vessels and additional berthing space (the current quay wall has an irregular shaped berthing area). The current practice of cleaning cockles using water at high temperature and then flushing water back into the estuary (still at high temperature) is no longer acceptable. The proposed works will install a suitable cooling system to ensure that the cleaning process does not contravene rules or regulations. Dredging works to deepen the navigation channel would extend the cockle fishermen's working window, which would bring a commercial benefit to the local industry.
