UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Wokingham Borough Council is procuring civil engineering works to upgrade the junction of Waterloo Road, Old Wokingham Road and Peacock Lane, within Bracknell Forest. The intersection will be converted into a new roundabout, requiring a contractor to facilitate delivery of the junction improvement. The work is predominantly civil engineering and covers the complete or partial construction works needed for the upgrade. The procurement is for works rather than goods or routine services. The delivery location is the junction within Bracknell Forest, although the buying organisation is Wokingham Borough Council. This opportunity is therefore relevant to main contractors and specialist civil engineering businesses with experience delivering highway junction, roundabout or comparable infrastructure works.

The process reached tender: the council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Bids were to be submitted electronically through the ProContract portal by 14 October 2026 at 16:00 UTC. The contract period set out for the single lot runs from 26 October 2026 to 16 November 2028. Its estimated value is £3,400,000 excluding VAT, or £4,080,000 including VAT. Offers are evaluated on a 60% price and 40% quality basis. The procurement uses one lot covering the junction improvement works. The tender concerns a contract below the applicable threshold and is being run under the UK Procurement Act 2023. The council requires offers for the complete requirement rather than separate specialist packages.

This opportunity suits established civil engineering and highway contractors able to take responsibility for delivering a substantial junction upgrade and constructing a new roundabout. Relevant capability includes traffic engineering, road construction, earthworks, drainage, surfacing, utilities coordination, temporary traffic management and the safe delivery of works at an operational road intersection. Businesses should be able to manage a multi-stage infrastructure project, coordinate site activities and subcontractors, and maintain quality, safety and programme controls throughout delivery. Experience of comparable roundabout, junction improvement or local highway schemes would place suppliers well. The requirement may also suit specialist civil engineering firms partnering with a lead contractor, provided the bidding arrangement can demonstrate sufficient resources, technical competence and capacity to deliver the full civils scope.
