Cambridgeshire County Council A605 Kings Dyke Level Crossing Closure

The Authority wishes to appoint a Provider for design and construction to bypass the level crossing at King's Dyke, Whittlesey. The works will include 1km of new road on structural embankments, a new bridge overthe railway and accommodating works. The scheme was previously awarded as a 2 stage Design and Buildcontract, for which a detailed design was completed. Cost estimates increased over time and so the Authority isnow seeking improved outcomes from the market. The Provider will be required to take responsibility for the existing detailed design, but may seek approval fromthe Authority as to where it may be improved. The Authority therefore welcomes Value Engineering exercisesfrom the Provider but notes that existing planning consent, site and technical constraints must be all upheld inany proposals which may come forward. Non-Material Amendments may be considered. It is expected that a contract will last for a period of approximately 2 years.
