Published justification

Awarding the final phase of the contract to Horticon would provide additional continuity for the Trust and has a strategic fit to the Trust’s ambition to meet our legal obligations to complete the development of the park as part of a land exchange agreement with Liverpool City Council.

Horticon have completed extensive enabling works that will allow for a quicker commencement of the next phase as they have a deep understanding of the constraints and interdependencies of projects across the wider estate. An earlier start will mean the park could be completed earlier which will a benefit for the wider community.
