We are thrilled to announce that Geotechnical Engineering Limited (GEL) has secured a place on the Canal and River Trust’s Geotechnical Inspection Framework. This achievement allows us to provide essential ground data across the Trust’s managed assets in England and Wales.

Lyndon Barton, Managing Director of Geotechnical Engineering Limited, expressed his enthusiasm: “We are delighted to be supporting the Canal & River Trust on this framework to help manage and maintain 2,000 miles of canals and rivers, reservoirs, the country’s third largest collection of protected historic buildings, and four world heritage sites. We look forward to sharing a collaborative relationship with the Trust for many years to come.”

John Ward, the Trust’s Head of Project Delivery, highlighted the importance of our services: “Our canals and rivers are used by more people than ever before, with over 35,000 boaters using the networks. The services Geotechnical Engineering provides are critical to ensuring we meet the current and future needs of the 13 million people that have access to our waterways, within a 10-minute walk from their home.”

The Framework has been awarded to GEL, alongside two other successful bidders, for an initial period of up to four years, with a potential four-year contract extension available.
