Summary of the contracting process

Hyndburn Borough Council has initiated a procurement process for the RIBA Stage 4 Design Service on a proposed new road project connecting Burnley Road with Altham Lane in Huncoat.

The procurement highlights the completion of the tender stage, with the contract having been signed on August 21, 2025, and it is set to remain active until April 19, 2026, with potential extensions allowable until December 31, 2026.
