## Summary

Newcastle City Council procured matchday traffic management services for Newcastle United fixtures at St James' Park in Newcastle upon Tyne. The work covers planning, staffing and implementing road closures, signage and traffic control, together with supervision before, during and after matches. It also includes deploying and removing hostile vehicle mitigation measures, including the Council’s H-Stops. The purpose is to support public safety and manage traffic flows around the stadium on matchdays. This is a public-sector services contract for traffic control and event traffic management. It would suit organisations able to coordinate operational teams, temporary traffic arrangements and security-related vehicle mitigation for recurring, high-footfall sporting events. The requirement is identified under CPV 63712700, traffic control services.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective, above-threshold restricted procedure. Bids had to be submitted by 6 July 2026 at 11:00. Newcastle City Council awarded the contract to Hatton Traffic Management Limited on 21 August 2026. The awarded value is £820,814 GBP, with the contract running from 25 August 2026 to 24 August 2030. The award is active. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The requirement was evaluated through the restricted procedure, with the successful supplier selected for the matchday traffic management service. This outcome records one supplier and one awarded contract for the full requirement at St James' Park, covering Newcastle United fixtures and associated traffic and vehicle-mitigation operations.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates sustained demand from Newcastle City Council for specialist traffic management around major sporting fixtures at St James' Park. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to plan and staff repeated matchday operations, implement road closures and temporary signage, control traffic safely, supervise teams and manage activity before, during and after fixtures. It would also need practical capability in deploying and removing hostile vehicle mitigation measures, including H-Stops, while coordinating these arrangements with public safety needs and stadium traffic flows. The buyer’s use of a restricted, above-threshold procedure indicates that suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate relevant technical and operational capability during a formal selection process. The opportunity is suitable for an SME with sufficient event-response capacity and dependable local delivery arrangements.
