Newry, Mourne & Down District Council looking for a Conservation Engineer who shall undertake a structural assessment of St Paul’s Church and its environs and prepare a phased, costed conservation strategy addressing short-, medium- and long-term actions. St Paul’s Church (ruins) is located within Crag Cemetery in the Rostrevor Conservation Area. The cemetery is accessed via a lane off Mary Street/The Square and is bounded by St Bronagh’s GAA Clubrooms to the west, with residential development to the south and east. While the church is neither listed in its own right nor a scheduled monument, it is considered curtilage listed due to its proximity to a Grade B listed memorial (HB16/06/050). The church ruins are in a deteriorated and unstable condition, which has led to the closure of the graveyard on health and safety grounds. This has significant implications for public access, heritage value and community use. A structural appraisal was undertaken in 2019, with further recommendations issued in 2021. Although initial actions were progressed, the project subsequently stalled due to COVID-19 disruption and changes in personnel. The condition of the structure has since worsened, and the site remains closed.

Shropshire Council is undertaking a secondary preliminary market engagement (PME) exercise in advance of a planned procurement for the delivery of publicly accessible electric vehicle charging infrastructure (EVCI) across Shropshire. Since undertaking its initial market engagement exercise, the Council has refined its proposed delivery model, concession structure, funding assumptions and site identification methodology. This secondary PME is intended to test these emerging proposals with the market and ensure that the eventual procurement is structured to maximise competition, attract investment and deliver a sustainable, equitable public charging network across Shropshire. The Council intends to procure a concession contract for the supply, installation, connection, operation and maintenance of electric vehicle charging infrastructure funded through the Department for Transport's Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) Fund. This secondary PME is being conducted in accordance with the market engagement provisions of the Procurement Act 2023 and is intended solely to inform the design and conduct of a future procurement. Participation in this engagement exercise will not confer any advantage or disadvantage in any subsequent procurement process. The Council currently anticipates commencing a formal procurement process during 2026, with contract award anticipated in 2027. Background Shropshire currently has approximately 546 public charge points. The Council has secured £2,006,000 of LEVI funding and expects to facilitate the deployment of over 550 additional charge points across the county. The programme is intended to improve access to EV charging, particularly for residents without access to off-street parking, and support the transition to electric vehicles across both urban and rural communities. Proposed Opportunity The Council is considering appointing a charge point operator under a concession contract to: Design, install, connect and operate EV charge points; Maintain and manage the charging network; Invest alongside the Council's LEVI funding; Deliver charging infrastructure on-street and on Council-owned land. The network is expected to comprise primarily 7kW charge points, supplemented by 22kW fast chargers and a limited number of rapid chargers where site conditions and network capacity permit. The Council is currently proposing a concession term of 15 years, with an option to extend by two years. The Council's current expectation is that the appointed concessionaire will be responsible for: Detailed design and delivery of the charging network; Supply, installation and commissioning of charging infrastructure; Distribution network connections; Operation, maintenance and management of the charging network; Customer services and payment systems; Asset lifecycle management and replacement; Reporting and performance monitoring requirements. The anticipated charging mix is expected to include: Primarily 7kW standard charging infrastructure; 22kW fast charging infrastructure where site and network conditions permit; A limited number of rapid charging installations of 50kW or greater where commercially and technically viable. Charging infrastructure is expected to be located principally on-street and on Council-owned land. Further information regarding the proposed site portfolio and deployment expectations will be made available at procurement stage. Use of Core Supplier Information Suppliers should note that any future procurement undertaken under the Procurement Act 2023 is expected to require suppliers to be registered on the Central Digital Platform (Find a Tender) and to maintain up-to-date Core Supplier Information in accordance with Regulation 6 of the Procurement Regulations 2024. Areas for Market Feedback The Council particularly welcomes feedback regarding: Traffic Regulation Orders (TROs) and their management Site assessment and selection Site design and stakeholder engagement Communications and customer …
