Description

Cottenham Parish Council (The Employer) is seeking a suitably qualified company to design and construct a new Multi Use Games Area (MUGA) at Cottenham Recreation Ground. The recreation ground is a large open space which offers a variety of sports provision, used primarily by the Cricket Club, Cottenham United Football Club and general recreational use by the local community. A Full Planning Application has been submitted, in late August 2024, to South Cambridgeshire District Council with initial indications by the local authority that there should be no foreseen issues or conditions on the application. However, if required the Council will seek support and information by the preferred contractor to address any relevant conditions that may form part of the permission. The site was previously used as two Grass Tennis Courts, however, is no longer fit for that purpose and is not for any public use. The design will largely be dictated by the space available, and the mature trees that sit to the western side of the proposed facility, and sports pavilion and proposed cricket nets to the northwest.
