Kerb Installation for Lower Thames Crossing Project

Skanska is looking for a subcontractor to install kerbs for access routes and parking areas at the Lower Thames Crossing project in Gravesend, Kent. The subcontractor will need to provide all necessary labor, equipment, and quality assurance to complete the kerb installation according to Skanska's specifications, schedule, and safety standards. The Lower Thames Crossing (LTC) is a new road project aimed at improving connectivity between Essex and Kent via a tunnel under the River Thames. The project focuses on creating job opportunities, supporting local communities, and promoting environmentally friendly construction practices. Skanska is committed to ensuring that small and local businesses have access to contract opportunities through Contracts Finder. This initiative aims to enhance competition, strengthen local economies, and maximize the benefits of investment in nearby communities. To achieve the goal of delivering the UK's most sustainable road, Skanska requires suppliers to: - Contribute to local workforce development by hiring locally and providing training for higher-skilled jobs. - Minimize carbon emissions by adopting sustainable practices, including eliminating diesel use on site. - Create early career opportunities, such as apprenticeships, and engage young people in construction through STEM initiatives. All workers involved in the project must have relevant qualifications and competency cards (CSCS) and possess a Highway Passport.
