Description

The highway maintenance and construction works include such work types as: slabbed footway relay schemes, construction of parking laybys on council land around the city, junction improvement schemes and general highway repairs. The larger public-realm type works are bespoke in their nature, but generally involve standard civils works as well as the installation of high-quality rigid paving and some soft landscaping works. The authority is conducting the procurement using the Open procedure for the purposes of procuring the works described in the Specification, and in accordance with the requirements of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
