## Description

The project objectives are to extend the existing Centurion Way recreational pedestrian and cycle route, which currently ends at West Dean at the entrance to the former West Dean railway tunnel\. The new Centurion Way Phase 2 route will run north from West Dean along the former Chichester to Midhurst railway line, to connect with the South Downs Way, a distance of approximately 5 kilometres\. The route will travel through the former West Dean railway tunnel \(circa 450 metres in length\), but will not route through the former Singleton or Cocking railway tunnels, which are subject to SAC and SSSI designations\. In order to avoid the Singleton tunnel the proposed route will leave the alignment of the Chichester to Midhurst railway line on the tunnel’s approaches and will navigate through Wellhanger Copse\. The new section of the Centurion Way will be an extension to the existing route, and will be open for use by members of the public as a shared route for pedestrians and cyclists\. The contract covers the scheme planning, to be undertaken in support of the planning submission for the extension of the Centurion Way and scheme design, to be undertaken post planning, as part of the detailed design of the scheme\. These works are subject to the successful outcome of the planning submission Additional information: Is a Recurrent Procurement Type? : No https://in-tendhost\.co\.uk/southdowns/aspx/
