Work includes the replacement of a dilapidated
retaining wall.
to appoint Coating Service Limited, who
submitted the most economically advantageous and methodologically
sound tender, to commence retaining wall reconstruction works at
the A672 Oldham Road, Denshaw
Option 1 is to reconstruct the retaining wall
after first stabilising the foundations using concrete piles
anchored into the bedrock.
Option 2 is to maintain the existing temporary stabilisation works
in the short to medium term and monitor the existing adjacent
retaining walls for signs of movement. However, this option comes
with the risk that the temporary stabilisation works may themselves
fail over time which could result in even more damage to the
adjacent retaining walls and pose a threat to the safety of the
public and increase the costs of the permanent works.
Option 2
Reason Key: Expenditure > £250,000 (Significant expenditure or savings);
