Build and construction contractors who might wish to submit a tender for main strategic infrastructure and construction works at Sleaford’s £56 million eco-conscious business park should take action now.
The Council is urging businesses which could be interested in the major works for the site including the civils, spine road construction and delivery of phase one of units to join the Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for these, so they don’t miss the chance to potentially tender later.
