The Borough Council of Calderdale (the Council) invites you to submit a Tender for Public Realm Designer Services for Public Places in the Heart of Todmorden Project. The Project aims to deliver changes to Bramsche Square, Todmorden, and adjoining areas surrounding the Market Hall to create a vibrant and green town square in the centre of Todmorden that supports a thriving local economy and cultural sector, encourages more visitors to the town and promotes walking and cycling over the use of private vehicles.

The Council is seeking to appoint a Public Realm Designer to provide RIBA Workstage 2 to RIBA Workstage 6 services and undertake the Principal Designer role.
