Tender Opportunity for £600k School Flat Roof Works

SOUTHAMPTON City Council has issued a tender invitation for flat roofing works to be carried out at Townhill Junior School this summer.

The £600,000 tender is for the replacement of flat roof coverings together with all associated works. Applications for the contract close in early June.

Tender Opportunity

The work was approved by the council as part of the education repairs and maintenance programme for 2024/25, and is funded through the schools condition allocation grant from the Department of Education.

Once the tender process is complete, work is due to start this summer and be completed by the end of the year.

There is not expected to be any disruption to learning at the school in Benhams Road.

Final timescales will not be completed until the tender process has taken place and a contract is agreed.

Bitterne Park ward councillor Phil Webb said: “It’s a real positive that the work can get underway while pupils are enjoying their summer holidays.

“With projects like this, along with the recent news about the Townhill Park sites being transformed into affordable housing thanks to the new framework, I hope this builds confidence locally that the area will get the TLC it richly deserves.”

Tenders can be submitted here. Applications close on 14 June 2024 at 14.00pm.
