Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Homes England commissioned highway traffic surveys for its Apsley House and Church Lane sites. The work covers classified turning-count and queue-length surveys, together with automatic traffic counts, to provide traffic data for both locations. This is a transport and traffic data collection service, rather than construction work. Homes England is the buyer, and the survey work is for the two named sites in the United Kingdom. The requirement concerns site-specific highway surveys, combining observations of turning movements and queues with automated traffic counts. Suppliers specialising in traffic surveying and transport or highway data collection are the closest fit.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to OVE ARUP & PARTNERS LIMITED. The award was made on 24 September 2026, with a contract value of £26,064. The contract period runs from 30 September to 31 October 2026. The requirement was procured as a services contract; the recorded procurement method is described as not applicable. The published information does not set out lots, an evaluation formula or specific eligibility requirements. Homes England indicated that the opportunity was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award covers the traffic surveys for both Apsley House and Church Lane; the value is presented for the award as a whole.

This award demonstrates demand from Homes England for targeted highway survey work at development sites. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to deliver classified turning counts, queue-length surveys and automatic traffic counts, and be able to plan and execute fieldwork across multiple sites. The work is focused on collecting usable traffic evidence, so relevant experience in survey design, accurate data capture and producing dependable outputs for highway or transport assessment would be commercially pertinent. The buyer marked the requirement as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses, indicating that firms of that scale can be relevant competitors. Arup was selected for this requirement, providing a market example of an established engineering and consultancy supplier winning this combination of traffic-survey services.
