As part of the Levelling Up Funded ‘Transforming Filwood Broadway’ regeneration project, Bristol City Council is seeking a multi-disciplinary team to work with the local community to deliver a High Street Delivery Plan and Improvements for Filwood Broadway High Street, in South Bristol. As Public Art partners on the project, KWMC are excited to share this call and look forward to working with an inspiring team who will bring additional expertise in high street renewal, economic development and capital works delivery.
This work will build on many years of engagement and work with local residents and stakeholders, and it is intended that study will build on this legacy to better connect the regeneration work with local economic development, food strategies, safety improvements, culture, community and public art, and develop clear deliverable improvement plans.
Stage One of the open-call process asks for project team details, motivation and three examples of previous projects. The second stage will shortlist three teams to provide detailed quotations. Alongside representatives from Bristol City Council, the judging panel will also include a representative from key local stakeholders Knowle West Media Centre and Knowle West Alliance.
The search for a design team also coincides with the appointment of Hayhurst and Co. for the £10m expansion and refurbishment of the local Filwood Community Centre.
Bids to deliver the contract will be evaluated 100 per cent on quality at Stage One. At Stage Two, bids will be judged 50 percent on quality, 20 per cent social value and 30 per cent on cost. It is expected that teams will be appointed via an NEC4 Professional Services Contract and consultants must hold employer’s liability insurance of £5 million, public liability insurance of £10 million and professional indemnity insurance of £1 million.
