Summary of the contracting process

St Helens Council commissioned highway construction works to improve active travel at Peasley Cross Roundabout in St Helens. The project is focused on the roundabout and its approaches, with the stated purpose of improving conditions for people making active journeys. The procurement was managed by the council, and the works were awarded to Huyton Asphalt Civils Ltd. The delivery location is identified as the United Kingdom; the named project location is Peasley Cross Roundabout, St Helens.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Huyton Asphalt Civils Ltd. The award was made on 10 August 2026, and the contract was signed on 28 September 2026. The contract period runs from 29 September to 9 November 2026. Its value is £3,434,475 excluding VAT (£4,121,370 including VAT). The works were procured through a selective route as an award under an existing framework, below the applicable threshold; the call-off was not competitive. The process was organised as one lot. The published information identifies highway construction as the work category, but does not give details of specific evaluation criteria.

This award shows that St Helens Council buys defined, site-specific active travel improvement works as highway construction, using call-offs from an existing framework rather than a competitive call-off. A credible supplier for a comparable future requirement would need to demonstrate the ability to deliver civil engineering and road works at a substantial project scale, with the capacity to complete a concentrated programme at a live roundabout and manage the practical demands of a defined urban site. Highway construction capability is central; firms whose work is limited to general transport planning or advisory services would not match the awarded requirement. Huyton Asphalt Civils Ltd, an SME, was selected, showing that delivery was within the reach of a specialist smaller contractor. The award does not identify particular accreditations, technical standards or scored criteria, so no further mandatory capability can be inferred.
