Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway works for the A30 Sourton Picnic Area Lighting Scheme. The requirement concerns surface work for highways (CPV 45233210), with the project title identifying lighting works at the picnic area. National Highways is the buying organisation; its address is in Birmingham. The work is associated with the A30 Sourton Picnic Area, although the published delivery-address entries cover broad areas rather than giving a more precise site address.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Hanson Contracting. The award was made on 1 October 2026, and the contract period runs from 2 October 2026 to 12 February 2027. The awarded contract value is £30,132.09. This was a selective call-off from a framework agreement, with a submission deadline of 1 October 2026. The procurement was classified as works and marked suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The available procurement details do not set out lots or evaluation criteria.

For suppliers considering similar future highway lighting work for National Highways, this award demonstrates demand for a focused, short-duration scheme at a roadside picnic area, delivered through a framework call-off. A credible competitor would need to undertake highway works suited to a specific site and demonstrate the practical capacity to deliver within a tightly bounded project period. National Highways selected Hanson Contracting, identified as a large supplier; this indicates that a larger contractor was able to fulfil the requirement, while the procurement was also marked suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The scope is specifically tied to lighting at the A30 Sourton Picnic Area, so relevant experience in highway environments and the ability to coordinate works at that type of location would be pertinent.
