Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured traffic-light goods and associated support for the A3 Dennis Interchange scheme. The requirement was to support two further weekend closures of the A3, with traffic signals forming the main purchased category (CPV 34996100). The work relates to the A3 at Dennis Interchange; the buying organisation is National Highways Limited, a central government public authority based in Birmingham. The awarded supplier, Yunex Limited, is based in Poole and supplies the traffic-management sector. This opportunity is relevant to businesses that provide traffic signals and related equipment or support for major-road schemes, particularly where temporary traffic arrangements must be maintained during planned highway closures.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Yunex Limited. National Highways used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The award is active and relates to one completed lot. The contract was signed and started on 10 August 2026, running until 30 September 2026. Its value is £12,468.18 excluding VAT and £14,961.82 including VAT. The award concerned traffic lights and support for two additional weekend closures on the A3 for the Dennis Interchange scheme. The outcome indicates that the requirement was evaluated through a non-competitive below-threshold route rather than an open tender, with Yunex Limited selected as the supplier.

For a supplier that did not win this contract, the award provides a clear indication of National Highways’ demand for traffic-signal equipment and support on a major-road interchange scheme. A credible future competitor would need practical experience supplying or maintaining traffic lights for highway works, and the operational capacity to support traffic arrangements during weekend road closures. Familiarity with the constraints of live strategic-road networks, interchange schemes and time-critical closure support would strengthen a supplier’s position. The requirement also indicates that specialist traffic-signal providers can be engaged for focused, short-duration support rather than only for large, long-term contracts. Businesses serving National Highways should therefore be able to deliver reliably around defined closure periods and coordinate equipment or support with highway-scheme delivery.
