Summary of the contracting process

Hull City Council commissioned civil engineering works to improve footpaths in Kingston upon Hull. The named locations are Chanterlands Avenue, Duesberry Street and Hinderwell Street. The work sits within a wider public-sector framework for civil engineering and related works, with participating organisations able to include councils, education bodies, health services, housing associations, emergency services and other public bodies across Yorkshire and Humber and neighbouring areas. This particular contract is for the North West Footpath Improvements scheme in Hull, rather than the full range of framework works. The procurement is categorised as construction and civil engineering work. The framework also covers broader civil engineering projects and surfacing works, but those are separate work areas from this footpath improvement contract.

The contract has been awarded to PBS Construction (North East) Ltd and signed. Hull City Council used a single-stage mini-competition under the YORcivil3 framework, through a restricted procedure. The contract was signed on 20 October 2026. Its stated delivery period runs from 26 October 2026 to 30 April 2027. The contract value is £155,974; the stated estimate was £155,973.78, excluding VAT. The related framework lot covered civil engineering works up to £750,000 and set quality at 30% and price at 70% in its award criteria. That framework lot is recorded as cancelled, while this individual footpath contract is recorded as active. The framework also has a wider group of appointed contractors, including PBS Construction.

This award demonstrates a requirement for practical civil engineering delivery on urban footpaths in Hull. Suppliers competing for comparable future work would need to show they can plan and carry out footpath improvements across named streets, coordinate construction activity in a city setting and deliver to a defined programme. The wider framework also indicates demand for general civil engineering and related works for public bodies, including surfacing and projects of different sizes. The route used here was a mini-competition among framework contractors, so experience of framework call-offs and a clear, competitive response on quality and price would be relevant. The appointed supplier, PBS Construction (North East) Ltd, is an SME based in Hull, showing that a local SME secured this particular contract.
