UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hull City Council sought works for the Freetown Way Cycle Scheme in Hull. The requirement was to undertake the necessary cycle lane works on Freetown Way, covering cycle path construction. This is a civil engineering and active-travel infrastructure opportunity, involving construction activity to create or improve dedicated cycling provision. The council is the public-sector buyer and the works are associated with Freetown Way in Hull. The requirement concerns physical works rather than the supply of standalone goods or professional advice. Contractors whose core business is cycle infrastructure, highway construction or related civil engineering would be the most relevant potential suppliers for this type of requirement.

The process reached tender: Hull City Council invited suppliers to submit offers for a single-lot works contract. The tender was subsequently withdrawn, and the award was cancelled because it was awarded under different procurement regulations. The published contract period was from 23 June 2025 to 1 June 2026. The estimated value was £5,200,000 excluding VAT, or £6,240,000 including VAT. The procurement was above the relevant threshold. The tender used a competitive invitation for offers, but the available details do not state a specific procedure, submission deadline, enquiry deadline or evaluation weighting. No alternative lots or separate awards are identified.

This requirement would have suited an established civil engineering or highways contractor able to deliver cycle-lane construction works on an urban route. Relevant capability would include managing construction activity in a public highway environment, coordinating site operations and delivering the physical infrastructure required for a cycle scheme. Suppliers with experience of cycle paths, active-travel schemes or comparable highway works would have been well placed to compete. The opportunity was substantial in scale and would have been relevant to businesses with the workforce, plant, project-management arrangements and supply-chain capacity needed for a major public infrastructure project. Specialist subcontractors may also have found a role where their expertise supported the main works contractor.
