East Dunbartonshire Council is seeking a contractor to create a new footpath leading to a school in Bishopbriggs.

The council is inviting bids from companies interested in building a new access path for St Helen’s Primary School.

The contract, which has a one month duration, is for a new path, two metres wide and around 62m long, to provide a safe walking route to the school’s car park entrance.

Bidding for the contract is open to companies with a minimum “general” yearly turnover of £130,000 for the last three years, and details of the staff who would be assigned to the project as well as their qualifications must be provided.

Any interested contractors should submit their bids via the Public Contracts Scotland website and the deadline to do so is on October 21.
