Invitations to Quote: Cycle route audit and cycle route brand development
With the aim to revitalise the Round the Forth cycle route (NCN76) and promote cycle tourism in the Inner Forth area, the Climate FORTH project will rebrand the 'Round the Forth' cycle route as a circular 2-day cycle route around the upper firth of Forth (between the Forth Bridges and Stirling).
As part of this suite of activities, RSPB Scotland, on behalf of the Inner Forth Futures partnership (IFF), wishes to commission:
An experienced cycle tourism consultant to review and ride the proposed Sustrans 'Round the Forth' 2-day cycle route along with a separate route audit to confirm the suitability of additional cycling day trips.
An experienced brand designer or design agency to develop a brand identity and logo for the existing Round the Forth cycle route (NCN76).
The audit of the Round the Forth Route and associated day trips, and the development of a brand identity for the Round the Forth cycle route sit within the Climate FORTH (Furthering Our Resilience Through Heritage) project as part of a wider suite of activities aiming at developing and promoting cycle tourism in the Inner Forth area and supporting the local economy. Climate FORTH will be delivered over three years from August 2023, subject to a successful delivery stage application to the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
