The key elements of the University’s proposal are:- • 10 lanes. • Provide opportunities for two indoor matches to be played concurrently. • A facility that is 46m long and 52m wide • Areas between the game zones to be greater than the minimum (hence the wider facility) to allow for improved spectator experience and for wheelchairs to pass • Lane width – Elite level at 4m • Orientation as close to North South as possible – with the bowler coming from the northern end. • Location on the site to be in the southern part of the site. • Storage for bowling machines to be within the covered outdoor facility with suitable protection against frost and damp at the bowlers’ end • Storage, in the form of open units, for players’ bags and equipment at the bowlers’ end outside of the playing area. • Covered facility to be surrounded by anti-climb fencing (same height as that surrounding the University’s all weather pitches) with access gates on the northern and eastern boundaries (exact details tbc) • Soft and hard landscaping to be provided to the perimeter A full scope of services for the appointed contractor will be developed and will be issued as part of the procurement process. It is envisaged the contractor will be appointed on a 2 Stage JCT Design and Build Contract. The University is looking to run a competitive flexible process commencing with a Preliminary Market Engagement Stage which will help to guide the next stages of the process.
