The brief

To create a new, short footpath linking the new footpath to the MUGA The new diverted footpath will cross an area of ground prone to becoming water-logged and therefore this footpath will need to be built up to avoid puddling.

Consideration must also be given to water-shedding practices to ensure the surface does not become water-logged or eroded.

Cam Parish Council would like contractors to advise on the best method of achieving a built-up pathway of water-shedding design and to fully show this advice in their quotes.
