New Elgin Cemetery

Moray Council will be constructing a new Cemetery in Elgin. The cemetery design has been prepared by Ironside Farrar Limited. The works will include construction works required for the cemetery: this includes extensive earthworks, construction of NMU and road accesses, drainage installation, tree planting and removal, and grass and flower seeding. There are several constraints on the project, which include the presence of a high-pressure gas mains near the site and ecological constraints. Contractors are invited to express their interest in tendering for the project, which is anticipated to be be advertised through Public Contracts Scotland in the second half of 2024. Construction is expected to commence in 2024, and the cemetery must be open to the public by Autumn 2026.
