Trinity Academy Modular Temporary Accommodation Bristol

The project requires the provision of modular temporary accommodation on the former Lockleaze Day Centre site, Bristol. The School's permanent building has been delayed by COVID19 and accommodation for 180 pupils is required for a period of 6 months until the permanent building is completed. The day centre has been demolished and the site is vacant with all services disconnected. The project requires five general purpose classrooms, three specialist practical spaces (including one science lab with perimeter benching and prep room), dining hall, SEN/group rooms, staff/admin areas and associated support and circulation spaces, totalling a gross internal floor area of 1,216sqm. Current plans are for 6 separate modular buildings, a combination of single and double height units. Associated external works include secure line fencing and hardstanding between units. The existing car park and hard play are being reused. Works include the connection of all services and reinstatement following the end of the hire period.

The proposed procurement is single stage D&B based on an ITT and planning stage drawings. The successful contractor will be appointed as Principal Designer and Principal Contractor and be responsible for developing the design and coordination, including service connections, prior to construction. The contract will be entered into in May 2021, with installation required well in advance of September 2021. It is currently assumed that reinstatement will occur after Christmas 2021, with the defects period completing in February 2023.
