Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway works for joint replacement at the M53 Eastham Viaduct. The requirement concerns replacing joints on a major road structure, forming part of surface work for highways. Delivery is associated with the M53 Eastham Viaduct in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is National Highways Limited, the public company responsible for England’s strategic road network. This is a works contract rather than a supply or consultancy requirement. The recorded delivery scope includes the United Kingdom, while the named project location identifies Eastham Viaduct on the M53. The requirement is therefore relevant to contractors delivering highway, bridge or road-structure maintenance works, particularly joint replacement.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. National Highways Limited used a selective procedure, with the contract called off from a framework agreement. Holcim UK Limited was awarded the contract on 5 May 2026 for £1,122,768.32 including the stated currency of GBP. The tender submission deadline was 5 May 2026 at 12:00. The contract period runs from 6 May 2026 to 30 October 2026. The award is recorded as active. The published information identifies the requirement as a single highway works opportunity and records suitability for small and medium-sized enterprises. Evaluation criteria are not set out in the available procurement details.

This award shows a defined National Highways requirement for specialist highway and bridge maintenance, centred on replacing joints at a viaduct on the strategic road network. It is commercially relevant to civil engineering contractors with demonstrable experience of road-structure maintenance, joint replacement and working safely on major highways. Credible suppliers would need the operational capacity to plan and deliver works at a live or strategically important road asset, manage site logistics and provide competent construction teams. The buyer marked the opportunity as suitable for SMEs, so smaller specialist contractors may be well placed where they can evidence the required technical delivery capability, quality controls, health and safety arrangements, and experience of comparable highway works. The call-off route also indicates the importance of framework participation or partnership with a framework supplier.
