Summary of the contracting process

West Lothian Council has concluded the procurement process for the installation of 3m cycle paths under the "Active Travel" project, which encompasses Lot 1: Heartlands to Whitdale Roundabout and Lot 2: Fauldhouse to A706, within the industry category of general public services. Located in the UKM78 region, this procurement started with an open procedure, ensuring a fair opportunity for potential bidders. The tender phase ended on 13th February 2026, subsequently moving to the award stage, followed by the signing of contracts on 30th March 2026. Both project lots are now in the complete stage, managed previously under a structured timeline, with West Lothian Council acting as the primary purchasing authority.

This project presents a significant business growth opportunity for civil engineering and construction firms, especially those specialising in public infrastructure works or cycle path installations. The open procedure meant that various businesses had equal opportunities to participate electronically, encouraging competition and the inclusion of small and medium enterprises (SMEs), as evidenced by Newlay Civil Engineering Ltd and Bottom Groundworks securing contracts for the respective lots. Companies with technical expertise in cycle path construction and compliance with West Lothian's financial and technical criteria were particularly well-positioned to benefit from this tender, not only enhancing their portfolios but also contributing to regional infrastructure improvements, aligning with the community benefits outlined by the council.
