Scottish Prison Service is inviting bids for a new national women’s prison to be built to replace Scotland’s only female jail at Cornton Vale in Stirling.
The prison for 80 inmates will house the most serious offenders. This smaller national prison will be supported by five new separate, smaller regional custodial units.
Scotland scrapped plans for a £75m women’s super prison at HMP Inverclyde in January in favour of smaller prison supported by regional units as part of a new approach to female offending.
SPS is planning a two-stage process for the design and build project which will be designed to level 2 BIM and use a project bank account during construction.
More information is available from the Public Contracts Scotland website.
