    Brief

    Natural Resources Wales (NRW) is seeking qualified contractors through a Framework Agreement to maintain and develop over 500km of official mountain bike trails across Wales. The opportunity is divided into two lots: Lot 1 – Trail Maintenance: Contractors will perform preventative and reactive maintenance on existing trails, including repairs to trail surfaces and features, vegetation management, installation and maintenance of signage and safety infrastructure, weed and invasive species control, and emergency repair services available outside standard working hours. Lot 2 – Trail Design and Construction: Contractors will design and construct new mountain bike trails and trail sections, including securing necessary permissions and approvals, clearing corridors, constructing trails to specified grades, testing and certifying completed works, and providing formal handover with documentation. This is a multi-year framework agreement offering ongoing work across multiple geographical regions in Wales. Contractors should have experience in trail maintenance and construction, vegetation management, and ability to respond to emergency requirements. Detailed specifications and project-specific requirements will be provided for individual commissions.
