Purpose

The reason for this report is to request
approval to procure and award a contract for the
installation of a Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA) at Arundel Street
Park in accordance with the
Council’s Contract Procedure Rules.
The MUGA which needs to be installed has already been purchased and
supplied by IAE.
As a result of the topography of the site, there are extensive
leveling works that need to take
place prior to the installation, the levels on site need to be
lifted significantly to make this a
usable MUGA space. This will be done by introducing a flag on edge
curb.
Arundel street park currently has a Striker Goal end with football
goal and basketball hoop. By
installing sides and a mirrored end, this will enable matches to
take place and improve the
current play offer in the area.
The required installation work will be funded by the Big Local and
a LIF bid from Oldham
Council.
