Leicester City Council is overseeing a procurement process for the redevelopment of Leicester Station under the title "PAN3306 - Leicester Station - Redevelopment Works." This project falls under the construction industry category with an emphasis on works, and is located in Leicester, United Kingdom (region UKF21).

Key dates include a market engagement session scheduled for 23rd July 2025, and the submission deadline for engagement responses set for 6th August 2025 at 12 noon.
