The City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council awarded a contract for "Automatic bollard maintenance and repairs" to MACS AUTOMATED BOLLARD SYSTEMS LIMITED. This procurement process falls under the "works" category, specifically related to bollards and road maintenance, and is part of the public authority responsibilities of the local council. Located in the UKE41 region of Bradford, United Kingdom, the procurement was conducted through a direct method as a below-threshold process without competition, and the procurement stage is complete. The contract, valued at £50,005 (gross value £60,006), was signed on 27th November 2025 and covers maintenance and repair work over two days, from 27th to 28th November 2025.
