Opportunity Overview
NRW intends to award a Framework Agreement to support the maintenance of over 500km official NRW mountain bike trails across Wales. The Framework contains two separate Lots, each divided further into geographical sub-Lots.

This also includes clearance of fall zones and maintenance of the wider trail corridor.
• Maintenance of trail corridors and sightlines through vegetation management, including cutting back encroaching vegetation and brashing trailside trees flush to the trunk.
• Small-scale installation, maintenance and repair of fencing and motorcycle barriers. Detailed specifications for all works will be agreed in advance between the Contractor and the Lot Manager.
• Installation, maintenance and replacement of waymarker posts, interpretation panels, signage and other associated trailside infrastructure.
