The extent of the sites and the number of cores on each site cannot be pre-determined, however based on previous years' experience and budgets going forward we anticipate between 1200 cores per year will be required however, this quantity is indicative only and cannot be the guaranteed quantity of cores for the contract years Lot 1: The aim of the coring programme is to improve the service performance of Statutory Undertakers with regards to reinstatement works conducted on the highway and to ensure the integrity of the highway network and its asset is maintained.
