Descriptions

The Duthie Park has undergone a Major Restoration funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and Aberdeen City Council. As part of this funding, the Council is required to provide paddle boats for public use. The proposals set out in the restoration include the provision of paddle boat hire in the upper section of the linked lakes. The linked lakes have been refurbished as part of the restoration and include a new ticket booth with electrical supply along with mooring bollards, eyes and pedestrian railings.There have been canoes in the park for numerous years and there is a public expectation that this will continue.The successful Tenderer will have the use of 10 paddle boats and 12 canoes provided by the Council. Upper linked lake has the capacity for 14 paddle boats and the successful Tenderer can liaise with the Council regarding the introduction of further boats and canoes subject to adherence to all relevant Health and Safety policies and legislation.
