Replacement Contractor for Demolition and Redevelopment of The Pastures Site in Banstead

About

London Borough of Sutton awarded a contract to Selsdon Building Contractors Limited for the provision of a replacement contractor for The Pastures project.

The contract involves the demolition of 15 existing pitches and a community hall, and the redevelopment of the site and land south of The Pastures to provide 23 pitches (Use Class C3), including 23 amenity blocks, a community hall (Use Class F2), communal amenity space, additional planting, refuse and recycling facilities, a substation, parking, and re-arrangement of access.

The contractor will develop the project design and delivery from stages 3 to 6, supported by designs and surveys up to RIBA stage 3 provided by the project team.

The project is programmed to achieve GLA Start on Site by April 2024.

The site at 80 Carshalton Road, Banstead SM7 3DX is allocated in LB Sutton's Local Plan (S104) and is surrounded by Metropolitan Green Belt and Site of Importance for Nature Conservation.

A phased construction plan will apply to rehome existing residents during the project.

The procurement was conducted through an open tender using the accelerated procedure under regulation 27(5) of the Public Contracts Regulations due to the unforeseeable administration of the original contractor and the need to meet existing GLA funding deadlines.

The contract value is AUD 6,254,000.
