Summary of the contracting process

Oxfordshire County Council commissioned a highways consultancy service for the Eynsham Grade Separated Crossing Study. The work is a detailed technical assessment to conclude the investigation into the most appropriate solution for a grade-separated crossing enabling active travel across the A40 at Eynsham, in West Oxfordshire. It covers consultancy supporting transport infrastructure and active-travel planning, rather than construction of the crossing itself. The service is classified under CPV 71311210, highways consultancy services. Delivery is in Eynsham and the surrounding West Oxfordshire area, within the South East of England. The council is the public-sector buyer and intended user of the assessment and its conclusions.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 9 January 2026 at 17:00. Oxfordshire County Council awarded the contract to AtkinsRealis UK Limited on 13 July 2026 for £75,981 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 13 July 2026 to 31 January 2027. The requirement was evaluated as a highways consultancy services contract for a detailed technical assessment of the active-travel crossing solution at Eynsham. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the tender status is complete.

This award indicates demand from Oxfordshire County Council for specialist highways consultancy to investigate active-travel infrastructure and assess options for crossing a major road. Suppliers seeking similar future work with this buyer would need credible capability in transport and highways consultancy, detailed technical assessment, and the development or appraisal of grade-separated crossing solutions. Experience translating investigations into a recommended infrastructure solution would be directly relevant. Firms should also be able to deliver work in the Eynsham and West Oxfordshire context and operate effectively through a framework call-off route. The procurement was marked as suitable for SMEs, so a focused consultancy with the necessary technical expertise and capacity could be well placed to compete when comparable requirements return.
