Clearing and Pruning in the Archaeological Sites of Kerameikos and Ancient Agora

This tender concerns the vegetation management and maintenance within the archaeological sites of Kerameikos and the Ancient Agora, covering an area of approximately 240 acres. The primary objective is to enhance safety, improve the visibility and readability of the archaeological remains, and upgrade the overall aesthetic presentation of these significant historical locations. The scope of work involves several key activities to address the seasonal growth of herbaceous and highly flammable vegetation.

Specifically, the contract includes annual comprehensive clearing operations to be conducted before the commencement of each fire-prevention season. These clearing activities will be supplemented by localized interventions as needed throughout the year. Furthermore, the tender encompasses the pruning of dead branches from trees, as well as the sanitation and shaping of both trees and shrubs to maintain their health and appearance. A crucial aspect of the work involves the eradication of invasive or harmful plant species that may threaten the integrity of the sites or native flora.
