In plain English

Broughton Parish Council is asking contractors to completely resurface a car park and access road. This involves removing old tarmac, digging down 450mm, installing new drainage systems with a soakaway, and laying new road surface layers.

What the buyer wants

• Excavate and remove existing tarmac and dispose of all waste to licensed facilities • Install new drainage (ACO drains, sumps, and a 66-crate soakaway system with overflow connection) • Lay 250mm of Type 1 sub-base, then three layers of new road surface (100mm AC32 base, 60mm AC20 binder, 30mm SMA10 surface course) • Install new kerbs and edgings with concrete haunching • Level and compact all layers to specification

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: This is a specialist groundworks and resurfacing contract worth £100k: most sole traders and small general builders lack the plant machinery (excavators, compactors, road rollers), the waste disposal licenses, the insurance levels, and the specialist asphalt laying expertise required. You will likely need to sub-contract or partner with a larger civil engineering firm.
