UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Devon County Council commissioned replacement traffic signals and a Toucan pedestrian-and-cycle crossing on Main Road, Pinhoe, Exeter. The work is classified as construction and concerns a specific crossing and signal installation rather than a broad highways maintenance programme. The delivery location is Pinhoe, Exeter. The requirement was arranged as one lot under a framework. The named buyer is Devon County Council; the selected contractor, Kennford Tarmacadam Ltd, is based in Exeter. This is a local road-infrastructure project focused on renewing traffic-control equipment and providing a Toucan crossing, which allows people walking and cycling to cross at a signal-controlled crossing. The scope is confined to the described site and works.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to Kennford Tarmacadam Ltd. The contract was signed on 23 October 2026 and runs from 27 October to 18 December 2026. Its value is £6,631.56 excluding VAT and £7,957.87 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. Devon County Council used a selective route, making the award under an existing framework; the call-off was non-competitive. There was one lot, and it is complete. The procurement was below the applicable threshold. The available process information does not state a separate scored evaluation basis. The award relates to construction works for the traffic-signal replacement and Toucan crossing at Main Road, Pinhoe, Exeter.

For suppliers considering similar future work for Devon County Council, this contract demonstrates demand for small, site-specific traffic-signal and pedestrian-and-cycle crossing construction. Relevant capability would include replacing traffic-control installations and delivering signal-controlled crossings that accommodate both pedestrians and cyclists, with the practical ability to work at a defined location on a public road. The award went to an Exeter-based small and medium-sized contractor, showing that this scale of project can suit a local civil engineering or highways works business rather than requiring a major national contractor. The buying route was an award under a framework, so experience of framework call-offs and delivering tightly scoped works would be commercially relevant. Suppliers with evidence of comparable road-infrastructure delivery and the capacity to complete a focused installation would be well placed when this buyer next procures similar works.»}()
