The winning team selected for the estimated \u00a320,000-to-\u00a330,000 contract will carry out a feasibility study exploring high-level design options for a new active travel corridor connecting the two key settlements within the New Forest.<\/p>\n

Key aims of the project include boosting walking and cycling facilities along the route which spans some of the \u2018most attractive and environmentally sensitive areas\u2019 of the New Forest. The study will consider \u2018all relevant constraints and risks, then recommend preferred options with high-level concept designs and realistic costings.\u2019<\/p>\n

According to the brief: \u2018The New Forest National Park Authority supported by Hampshire County Council is seeking a consultant \/ consultancy to prepare an Active Travel Feasibility Study for a route between Lyndhurst and Lymington in the New Forest National Park, Hampshire, known in the New Forest LCWIP as Route 120.<\/p>\n

\u2018The purpose of the feasibility study is to identify options for this important utility and leisure route through the New Forest. The study will need to look at the provision of new walking and cycling (and, where appropriate, equestrian) options along Route 120 from Lyndhurst to Lymington. The route has further very important utility and leisure connections to the north and east.\u2019<\/p>\n

The New Forest is one of the last areas of unenclosed pasture, heath and woods in southern England. It was created by William the Conqueror and contains various rare birds and mammals within its 380km2<\/sup> territory.<\/p>\n

The latest procurement comes three months after New Forest District Council launched a search for a consultant for a new framework to transform Totton town centre<\/a> in Hampshire.<\/p>\n

Bids for the latest commission will be evaluated 70 per cent on quality and 30 per cent on price.<\/p>\n
