Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the City of Wakefield commissioned works for a verge hardening scheme on Radcliffe Road in Lupset, Wakefield. The requirement is highway and road construction work, including preparing and strengthening the roadside verge to improve its durability and suitability for use. The procurement is categorised as works and covers the delivery of the physical construction activity in the United Kingdom, with the project identified specifically with Radcliffe Road, Lupset. It is relevant to civil engineering contractors, highways contractors and groundworks businesses able to undertake small-scale road-related infrastructure works for a local authority. The buyer is a sub-central public authority based in Wakefield, and the requirement was arranged as a single lot covering the complete scheme.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a below-threshold procedure described as “unknown”. DSD CONSTRUCTION LIMITED was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 3 September 2026 and runs from 3 September 2026 to 18 September 2026. Its gross value is £110,271. The contract is active. The award covers highway and road construction works, including motorway, road, main-road, ring-road and secondary-road construction classifications. This was a short, single-lot local-authority works contract. The published information identifies the successful supplier and contract outcome, but does not set out a separate award date or detailed scoring basis.

For a contractor that did not win this contract, the award demonstrates demand from Wakefield Council for compact, time-limited highways and roadside infrastructure schemes. A credible future supplier would need practical civil engineering and groundworks capability, experience of verge strengthening or hardening, and the plant, labour and supervision needed to deliver construction works within a short programme. Familiarity with highway environments, traffic and public-interface controls, site safety, drainage or sub-base preparation, and reinstatement would strengthen a bid for a similar requirement. The selected supplier is a large construction company, indicating that the buyer accepted a contractor with established delivery capacity. Businesses tracking Wakefield’s local road works should treat this as evidence of a recurring requirement for specialist highways contractors.
