Crawley BC and Horsham DC - Traffic Management Services

• Value: £250K

Lot A: Crawley Borough Council invites tenders for the provision of traffic management services within the Crawley Borough to ensure that the Council’s operatives can safely carry out litter cleansing, street sweeping, and grass cutting duties along high speed roads. Crawley Borough Council has mainly required mobile traffic management services on the A23 and A2220 high speed dual carriageways in the past; however, this is not exclusive of any other roads or types of traffic management measures that might be required during the contract term. The Contract Start Date for the delivery of the services is scheduled to be on 1st April 2022 at 00:00 hours. The Contract will be awarded for a period of 3 years until 31st March 2025, with an option to extend for a further period(s) up to a maximum of 2 years, subject to performance and the absolute discretion of the Council. Based on current expenditure, it is estimated that the contract will have a value of approximately £50,000 per annum; however, this is subject to the fluctuating demand of the service, and therefore no volume or value is guaranteed by the Council. This service is also subject to funding received from West Sussex County Council, and it is therefore worth noting that Crawley Borough Council’s requirements for traffic management services may be decreased if West Sussex County Council decides to reduce or remove the current funding arrangements. The Council is managing this tender process and communicating with Bidders using the SE Shared Services e-sourcing portal hosted by In-Tend Limited (the Portal). No hard copy documents will be issued and all communications with the Council (including submission of tenders) will be conducted via the Portal.
