Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham City Council procured construction works for Phase 2 of the Nuthall Road improvement, covering the section from Western Boulevard to Aspley Lane in Nottingham, England. The work sits within planned carriageway maintenance and is intended to maintain or improve the highway carriageway along this route. It was called off from the council’s Planned Carriageway Maintenance – Highways Managed Framework. The procurement is categorised as construction work and covers works rather than goods or services. The named buyer is Nottingham City Council. The requirement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, making it relevant to established local or regional highway construction contractors.

The procurement has completed and was awarded on 10 July 2026 to Thomas Bow Ltd. It was a call-off from the Planned Carriageway Maintenance – Highways Managed Framework, using the framework’s route rather than a standalone open competition. The contract value is £609,776.15 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 13 July 2026 to 13 January 2027. Tender responses were due by 6 July 2026 at 12:00. The awarded supplier is Thomas Bow Ltd, an SME based in Nottingham. The award is active and the procurement’s overall status is complete. The published title identifies the specific Nuthall Road Phase 2 corridor between Western Boulevard and Aspley Lane.

For highway contractors, carriageway maintenance specialists and civil engineering SMEs, this award demonstrates a defined requirement from Nottingham City Council for route-based road construction and maintenance works. The successful supplier profile shows that an SME can deliver a council highway package of this scale through the managed highways framework route. A credible competitor for future requirements would need practical capability in carriageway construction or maintenance, the workforce and plant to deliver works on an urban road corridor, and experience of working to public-sector highway specifications and controls. Framework access, strong delivery performance and the ability to manage planned works safely and efficiently would also be commercially relevant for similar Nottingham City Council requirements.
