Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cambridgeshire County Council commissioned construction works for the Comberton Greenway – Sidgwick Avenue project. The requirement covers complete or part construction and civil engineering work, delivered in the East of England. It is a local transport and infrastructure project associated with the Comberton Greenway and Sidgwick Avenue, rather than a supply-only or professional services contract. The council is the buying organisation. The work was procured as a framework call-off under the Eastern Highways Alliance, using the framework’s Lot 1 rates calculator. This places the opportunity within the highways and civil engineering construction market, with relevance for contractors delivering public realm, route, access and associated infrastructure works for local authorities.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective direct award call-off from the Eastern Highways Alliance framework. Taylor Woodrow Construction Southern Limited was selected on 7 September 2026 for GBP 181,270.51. The awarded contract period runs from 19 October 2026 to 30 November 2026. The tender submission deadline was 24 July 2026. The stated basis for the award was the framework’s Lot 1 rates calculator, rather than a newly competed open tender. The requirement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises, although the selected supplier is recorded as a large organisation. The award remains active and the overall tender status is complete.

This award shows that Cambridgeshire County Council purchases relatively short-duration civil engineering construction through an established highways framework and a rates-based call-off route. A supplier seeking to compete for comparable work would need relevant experience delivering local-authority highways or active-travel infrastructure, with the practical capability to mobilise and complete construction within a tightly defined delivery window. Access to the relevant Eastern Highways Alliance framework, including its Lot 1 pricing mechanism, would be central to pursuing the same route. The procurement was marked as suitable for SMEs and VCSEs, so smaller specialist contractors may be credible where they can demonstrate suitable construction capacity, dependable delivery and public-sector compliance.
