    21/00009 Highway Civils Framework

     

    Proposed Decision:

     

    To procure and delegate authority to the Corporate Director for Growth, Environment and Transport to award and commission the Highway Civils Framework.

     

    Reasons for Decision:

     

    Under section 41 of the Highways Act 1980, as the local Highway Authority, the Council has a legal duty to maintain its respective sections of the highway network. This includes responsibility for maintaining, managing and, where necessary, improving their section of the network. These services will need to be commissioned externally to ensure the Council meets is statutory obligations and that service continuity is maintained.

     

    The proposed Highways Civils Framework is to enable the procurement and delivery of significant highway infrastructure development, civil engineering works and associated major value constructions works. The framework will be split into two lots:

     

    Lot 1 - Civil Engineering Works

    Lot 2 - Multidisciplinary Civil Engineering Works

     

    This framework will cover the South East of England and, while predominately supporting the Highway and Transportation directorate, it will be open to other government organisations. To ensure there is sufficient headroom for the Council and other government organisations, the value of the framework is set at £500m over a term of four years.
