Tender Description

⁠⁠⁠The outcome sought by the procurement is the securing of the services of a suitably qualified and experienced Main Contractor to undertake the proposed Stage 2 Site Carpark Works at Whangarei Heads School. The existing carpark and Bus maneuvering area on Whangarei Heads School Road is a significant health & safety concern for the school, with no designated bus stop, insufficient turning area for the bus (requiring reverse maneuvering), and general PU/DO parking also involving reverse maneuvering.

The proposed works has been staged into two parts, with stage 1 comprising of staff and visitor parking – completed in the summer holidays of 2023/24.

  •  The works will need to be undertaken in phases to maintain access to the neighboring properties along Whangarei Heads School Road.
  •  The works will require traffic management to be in place from start to finish of the contract works.
  • The works are generally within the WDC road reserve (Whangarei Heads School Road). The Contractor will need to obtain a CAR from WDC for the proposed works and comply to the requirements and conditions of WDC.
