Notice Title

Highway Term Maintenance Contract 2024

Notice Description

The Authority wishes to put in place a core highways maintenance contract that facilitates the delivery of innovative solutions, promotes recycling and re-use, and reduces the environmental impact of the services delivered throughout the lifetime of the contract. The new Term Service Contract (TSC) will replace the existing highway maintenance contract at the end of March 2024. In combination with the TSC, there will be three other contracts that will deliver surfacing, surface dressing, and new assets. All of these contracts will be tendered separately. All contracts will support the Authority's Climate Emergency Strategy and commitment to being carbon neutral by 2030. The Authority looks to establish collaborative ways of delivering the service to the residents of Somerset in a cost effective, flexible, and agile way, maximising the potential for success for the Authority and the appointed Contractor.
