Holywell Culvert Relining Works - Award of Contract

Decision Maker: Corporate Director of Business and Environmental Services

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Decision:

Award of contract for Holywell Culvert (No.736) Relining Works to Terra Solutions Ltd for £113,781.00. The scheme is from the Capital Budget and exceeded the allocated £40,000.00 budget

Reasons for the decision:

Holywell Culvert carries Holywell Beck beneath the A59 Harrogate to Skipton Rd. Corrosion to the original metal pipe culvert has caused the culvert to deform and the structure will continue to deteriorate until the problem is addressed. The A59 Skipton-Harrogate Rd is a regionally significant road and repairs are considered a high priority.

Alternative options considered:

Other options to repair the culvert would cause major disruption on the A59, such as culvert replacement. Relining with a cured-in place liner is the only practical solution to maintain the culvert's capacity and minimise disruption to the economy and travelling public.
