ED0410-26 1036 Phear Park and The Green Resurfacing Works
East Devon District Council Request the provision of works of resurfacing 1No. car park and 1No. park footpath as below: Phear Park is located in Exmouth (SY00735 81558) with vehicle entrance and exit access via Withycombe Road. Pedestrian access can be found via 2No. footbridges across Withycombe Brook to the north and footpath access from the southeast corner. The park includes an inner and outer circular footpath providing access to a playpark, skate park and Exmouth College to the north east. The footpath’s condition varies with severe rutting and scouring at the eastern portion, shallow scouring in the north and cracking due to tree root growth on the southern section. Therefore, requiring overlay and regulating surface course. ‘The Green’ Car Park is located immediately next to Victory Hall in Broadclyst (SX98330 97187) with entrance and exit access via Hellings Gardens leading to B3181. The tarmac surfaced car park is linear with bay parking lining along each border. Pedestrian access is available from the northwest and southwest corners of the site. The car park’s surfacing has areas of shallow scouring to the surface course and localised potholes towards the entrance of the site. Therefore, requiring overlay and regulating surface course.
East Devon is procuring a service for collection, emptying, and return/replacement of skips of varying sizes across multiple Authority locations. Collections will occur on both scheduled and ad hoc bases, potentially at different times for different sites. The Supplier must ensure sufficient fleet and driver capacity to meet concurrent requests without service degradation.

Procurement Description – Market Engagement Notice:
Sidmouth and East Beach Coastal Defence Scheme
East Devon District Council (EDDC) is preparing to commence an open tender procurement exercise using the New Engineering Contract NEC4 Engineering and Construction Contract (ECC), Option C (Target Cost), incorporating Secondary Option X22 – Early Contractor Involvement (ECI).
The purpose of the proposed procurement is to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced supplier to deliver Lead Designer and Delivery Partner services for the Sidmouth and East Beach Coastal Defence Scheme.
Nature of the Services:
The scheme comprises specialist coastal and marine engineering works within a complex and environmentally sensitive shoreline setting, incorporating existing heritage coastal defence structures. As such, prospective suppliers will be required to demonstrate:
Extensive experience of working within marine and coastal environments.
Proven capability in the design and delivery of coastal flood and erosion risk management schemes.
Experience working with historic and heritage assets.
A strong track record of undertaking works subject to ecological, planning, and regulatory constraints.
The appointed supplier will be required to develop the scheme from an already appraised and approved outline option (referred to as Option 6). The scope includes, but is not limited to, the following activities:
Undertaking detailed technical and numerical modelling
Developing detailed design solutions
Liaising with statutory consultees, regulators, and stakeholders
Managing the planning, pre‑construction, and construction phases of the works
Delivering a range of professional services necessary to support successful scheme delivery.
Early Contractual Involvement throughout the Design Stage
Indicative Scope of Works – Option 6:
Building upon the approved outline design, the scheme is anticipated to include a combination of the following interventions. The final configuration will be subject to detailed design development, environmental assessment, stakeholder engagement, and regulatory approvals.
1. Beach Renourishment
Provision of beach renourishment measures to support coastal defence objectives and maintain beach levels, in accordance with the outline design parameters.
2. Rock Structures and Offshore Defences
Installation of coastal rock structures, which may include:
A terminal rock groyne
One or more offshore rock breakwaters or alternative submerged features
These features will be designed to dissipate wave energy, mitigate ongoing erosion, manage littoral drift, and improve overall beach stability at the eastern extent of the frontage.
3. Terrestrial Defence Enhancements
Enhancements to existing shoreline defences and infrastructure, which may include:
Replacing, or future‑proofing the existing splash wall
Upgrading flood gates
Improving access infrastructure
Modifying and integrating existing river training wall elements
4. River Sid Interface Improvements
Localised improvements to the River Sid flood wall and associated structures to ensure continuity with the coastal defence scheme and to enhance flood resilience at the fluvial–coastal interface.
