NFNPA 0062 - ATE - Invitation to Tender - Wayfinding study

The New Forest National Park Authority (NFNPA or 'the Authority'), in partnership with Forestry England (FE) and New Forest District Council (NFDC), supported by Hampshire County Council (HCC) are seeking a consultant / consultancy to prepare a wayfinding study to enable users to navigate to and around the Forestry England Off-Road Cycle Network (a multi-user trail network) on the Crown Lands (the Forestry England estate) of the New Forest National Park. The purpose of the feasibility study is to produce a wayfinding plan that will enable users to navigate the cycling network confidently and effectively, ensuring routes are clearly marked and integrated with nearby access points, including car parks, villages, train stations, and key locations on the highway network. The network primarily consists of wide gravel tracks on Forestry England's New Forest estate, known locally as the Crown Land. This is supplemented by some bridleways and local highways. Hampshire County Council is the Highway Authority for any roads within this study. The recommended design options on highways will need to be in accordance with their policies and guidance documents.
