## Summary

Merseytravel has awarded a contract titled "Preliminary Design LCR Cycle Network Missing Links" under the industry category of Architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services (CPV 71000000). This procurement process, which commenced with an open procedure, required highway design services to enhance the Liverpool City Region's cycling and walking network by addressing significant missing links. The contract, with an estimated value of £360,042, spans from 28 October 2025 to 30 November 2025. Key milestones included the tender period ending on 2 August 2024 and the contract start date on 21 October 2024.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in highway design and transport consultancy services to collaborate on a public infrastructure project. SMEs in the architectural and engineering sectors, particularly those experienced in urban planning and transport network design, would find this project highly beneficial for growth. The project's emphasis on feasibility studies and preliminary design work also opens doors for consultancies proficient in stakeholder engagement and public consultation. Singleton Clamp & Partners Ltd, an SME, has been awarded this contract, demonstrating the project's suitability and potential rewards for small to medium enterprises.

## Notice

This contract is for a supplier to provide highway design services for the Liverpool City Region's (LCR) cycling and walking network. The LCR Cycling and Walking Network comprises 31 Desire Lines (corridors) of walking and cycling routes which we would like to deliver over the next decade and beyond. It has become apparent that significant connections to the existing and planned cycle, walking and wheeling routes can be made by improving smaller sections identified as 'Missing Links'. This commission is for a consultant to undertake the feasibility and preliminary design work, consultation and engagement for the Missing Links. Full details can be found in the Procurement documents.
