Description

Piel Island is a small offshore island in the Borough of Barrow-in-Furness, about 10ha in area. It can be accessed only by a passenger ferry or by driving over the sands at low tide (permission of foreshore owner and local guidance required). The island is owned by the Council, and is occupied by a number of privately owned cottages, a castle (managed by English Heritage) and a public house, The Ship Inn, with an adjacent toilet and shower block. The toilet and shower block is used mainly by casual visitors to the island, and people camping on the island. The Ship Inn has its own toilets and the licensees manage camping on the island. The toilet/shower is a blockwork building with a corrugated roof, approximately 40sqm. The gents has 2 cubicles, 2 urinals, 1 shower and 3 w/h/b. The ladies has 3 cubicles, 1 shower and 4 w/h/b. There is also an external sink. There is a mains water supply, and drainage is to a septic tank. Photographs of the facility are shown below. As part of the Low Carbon Barrow programme, the Council wishes to upgrade the facilities on Piel Island and replace the existing toilet and shower block with facilities that are an improvement for users and which also have a low environmental impact. We are therefore seeking suitable contractors to design and build a new toilet/shower block. This should support the low/zero carbon ethos, e.g. solar power, sustainable materials, sustainable drainage, whilst providing enhanced facilities for users. The opportunity will be let under a JCT Design and Build contract, and the successful contractor will therefore be responsible for the detailed design elements of the new facility.
