Campbeltown New Quay has been used for the shipping of locally manufactured wind turbine components since 2005. The shipping of new, larger components requires the quay to be lengthened by 35 m and the adjacent seabed to be lowered by 4m to accommodate larger vessels. Works are also required at the Old Quay to widen the road to allow the wind turbine component to be transported to the New Quay.
The New Quay will be extended by installing approximately 60 number tubular piles to support a new 35 m long by 21 m wide reinforced concrete suspended deck of approximately 1m depth. The seabed at the inner berth will be lowered by dredging approximately 80 000 tonnes of material. Approximately 140 m of combi-pile wall will be installed in front of the existing solid quay and existing open quay structures. The new combi wall will be tied back to the existing structure and fill will be placed in the void between the old and new pile walls. Ladders, fenders, bollards and cathodic corrosion protection will be installed on the new steel piles. A new concrete ground slab will be provided over the quay as well as area lighting and fencing works.
The reclamation works at the Old Quay will require the infill of approximately 500 m2 of the harbour and will be protected with a sloped concrete revetement. These works will include realigned roadway, paved oversteer areas, footpath, drainage, installation of lighting columns and road markings.
Argyll and Bute Council is seeking to contract a Principal Contractor for the performance of the works described above based on a design by Argyll and Bute Council's appointed consultants, Scott Wilson. The PQQ will be used to assess the suitability of proposed contractors (a shortlist of between 5 and 8 tenderers).
