II.2.4) Description of the procurement
Bidders must have traffic management as their core business but may also be able to provide ancillary services. Bidders whose main core business is not traffic management but have the mandatory NHSS scheme accreditation will not be considered.
The type of work is not limited to highway engineering operations but includes the Council’s street cleaning, lighting, grounds maintenance, drainage operations and other activities. Traffic management in response to some emergency incidents may also be needed.
St Helens Council has a statutory duty to manage and maintain the local highway network and it is necessary from time to time to put in place temporary traffic management measures to facilitate safe road works,temporary closures or incident management while minimising disruption to road users.
The Council proposes to manage its statutory responsibility by awarding a framework contract to a number of competent traffic management contractors who will design, install, maintain and remove temporary traffic management measures.
The contract is a framework and runs for an initial service period of 2 years from 1.4.2019 until 31.3.2021 with an option for two 12-month extension periods subject to review before the end of each period.
The contract includes the opportunity for named Authorities to join during the term of the contract. The estimated total value is based on named Authorities joining.
