description
The creation of the cycle trails and associated facilities is the first part of delivery of the Newbold Comyn masterplan. British Cycling and Sport England have made a grant award to the Council supporting the construction of approx. 4km of cycle trails and the refurbishment of an existing building as a cycle hub. The trails have been constructed, and opened in October 2023 under the management of Council officers and with the support of specialist contractors. The Council are aiming to have the services within this contract mobilised by no later than summer 2024.
The full facilities comprise:
| • | Blue, green and red standard trails around the north western third of the site. Trails are free to use and are designed to accommodate all abilities. |
| • | Cycle hub - a refurbishment of the old golf shop to accommodate toilets, |
Shop/cycle hire/minor repairs space and a cafe providing "coffee & carbs". The shop and café have been completed to a "shell" state and are to be fitted out internally by the appointed operator to suit its delivery model.
- Learn to ride area - a contained area adjacent to the Cycle Hub where safe learning to cycle can take place.
| • | Progressive jumps area near the trails. |
| • | Pump track - mown grassy area for racing side by side, principally in the summer. |
| • | Refurbishment of the existing BMX area at the adjacent Campion Hills site to accommodate Four-cross (4X) activity. |
| • | Planting and landscaping to be completed between the newly created tracks, |
In addition to the physical facilities, the Council has agreed a Development Plan with Sport England targeting the increase in cycling by specified groups of people within the community and will establish a "management group" to oversee delivery of that plan. The group includes British Cycling and voluntary local cycling groups. It will be a requirement of the appointed operator to join this management group, becoming an active member.
Anticipated requirements of the proposed contract are currently:
| 1. | Management of the cycle hub building and delivery of the services offered within it. |
| 2. | Physical and safety management of the cycle trails. |
| 3. | Monitoring and liaison - provision of staffing to deliver the Operational Plan and grant conditions agreed between Warwick District Council and Sport England and liaison with stakeholders of the facilities. |
The contractor will report to the Council's Sports and Leisure Contract Manager and be expected to liaise with officers responsible for maintenance contracts.
