Description

Cotswold Canals Connected is an ambitious national waterway restoration project that unlocks a lost section of the Cotswold Canals corridor between the Rivers Severn and Thames. It brings back to life crucial sections of the canal and associated wildlife corridor, making these areas and their related heritage, more accessible for a broader range of people and communities. This timely project is uniquely positioned to augment, stimulate, understand and address a wide range of social and economic issues together, finding the common connections which link our heritage and our communities - our railways, canals, rivers, mills, the Severn estuary wetlands and ecological corridor. We will revive and regenerate our communities, build on existing strong relationships and use an inclusive, empowering and community-led approach. We combine ambitious, innovative capital works, award winning wildlife conservation, practical and local enterprise development, and wide-reaching, creative and inclusive community engagement. Our activities will lead to multiple positive outcomes for people, communities and the natural world. The work includes approximately 50 physical sub-projects, organised into three ‘Sections’ along a three-mile stretch between Stonehouse and Saul. Permitted works are already proceeding and a planning application has been submitted for new canal construction works in the ‘Missing Mile’. Works range from simple reinforcement of culverts to enable access through to replacement of a highways bridge with a lift bridge. The engineering services required are: a. Design management. b. Programme management. c. Computer-Aided Design. Keywords: Engineering Services, Construction Servcices
