Having successfully obtained funding from the Environment Agency, Swale has recently gone out to tender to obtain prices to carry out repairs and re-surfacing to the promenade at The Leas, Minster, east of Seaside Avenue. The design works have been undertaken through the East Kent Engineering Partnership, by Canterbury City Council, who will also be supervising the works.

Unfortunately, the first Invitation to Tender, using the East Kent Engineering Partnership Framework Agreement, produced no responses, and the contract has therefore been re-advertised as an Open Tender, with a deadline for submitting tender documents of 5 October 2016.
