Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council has completed the procurement process for the "Belper - Derwent Valley Trail (North-South Route)" project, an active travel initiative aimed at enhancing the cycling infrastructure in the Belper area, UKF13 region of the United Kingdom. This tender is classified under site-investigation services and involves preliminary design, audit, and feasibility assessment of cycle provisions along the Derwent Valley. Funded by Active Travel England, the project has reached the award stage as of 29th August 2025, with work set to start on 1st September 2025, concluding on 31st December 2025. The procurement method applied was below the threshold, marking its completion with a contract worth £49,480.

This tender presents significant business opportunities, particularly for companies that specialise in transportation planning, infrastructure design, and civil engineering services. Organisations with expertise in site investigations and cycling infrastructure development are well-positioned to benefit from this project. Large-scale suppliers, such as AECOM–the awarded supplier–might find similar contracts fitting for their portfolio, but small to medium-sized enterprises with innovative solutions to improve alternative routes and optimise greenways could also compete effectively. The emphasis on stakeholder design workshops opens room for collaboration and emerging design insights, fostering growth and competitive advantages in active travel solutions.
