## Summary

National Highways Limited has awarded a substantial framework for the reconstruction of legacy concrete roads across multiple regions in the United Kingdom. The project, titled "Legacy Concrete Roads Reconstruction Framework," falls under the industry categories of construction, foundation, and surface works for highways and roads. This framework is now in its award stage with a start date set for 9 February 2026 and will continue until 8 February 2032, aligning with the Road Investment Strategy funding period. The procurement was conducted using an open procedure, highlighting a structured tender process aimed at enhancing efficiency and strategic plan execution. With an estimated value of £968 million, this framework marks a significant investment in infrastructure development across regions including North East, North West, and several others, as well as major urban areas like London.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, especially for large-scale construction firms capable of undertaking concrete road reconstruction and associated services. Businesses within the construction sector, particularly those specialising in road works, engineering design services, and traffic management solutions, will find opportunities to engage in principal designer and contractor roles. This comprehensive framework highlights areas such as demolition, reconstruction, traffic management, and stakeholder engagement—critical elements requiring specialised expertise. The involvement of established suppliers like Kier Transportation Limited, John Graham Construction Ltd, and John Sisk and Son Ltd showcases the need for collaborated efforts from prominent construction players to realise programme efficiencies and innovation within the sector. Firms with the capacity to engage in long-term infrastructure projects will find this contract particularly beneficial.

## Notice

National Highways have awarded a national framework, the Legacy Concrete Roads Reconstruction (LCRR) framework, that allows the delivery of concrete roads reconstruction schemes. The framework scope for the LCRR framework includes: - design and subsequent construction services for: - demolition of existing concrete pavements, - reconstruction of pavements (including new pavement furniture and markings) - design and delivery of associated temporary traffic management solutions, - when instructed: - involvement in optioneering, - design and construction of alterations to those legacy assets which interface with the replacement pavements' designs, which may include sub-surface drainage, street furniture and its foundations and signage, - design and construction to replace legacy central reserve with a hardened solution and overlay legacy concrete pavement with a long-life pavement solution (including new pavement furniture and markings), - performing principal designer and principal contractor duties as defined under the "Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015" ("CDM Regulations 2015"), - carbon capture recording and reporting, - recovery, recycling and reuse of arisings during the delivery of a scheme, - engagement with all identified stakeholders, and - identification, recording and realisation of programme efficiencies. The LCRR framework is six years in duration to ensure alignment to and coverage of the RIS3 funding period (2026-31) but also to overlap with the beginning of RIS4 (2031-36) in case of any delays in approvals of the strategy or funding for RIS4. This alignment of duration with our funding periods is required from a procurement, commercial and operational perspective because it provides greater efficiency and certainty that the strategic plan for which funding is received can be delivered consistently; clarity for future procurements and sufficient time to embed learning, best practice and investment in innovations. From a National Highways perspective, the proposed framework term allows for the RIS4 settlement to be finalised and agreed prior to the LCRR frameworks successor being procured. This will bring certainty of work and value to the future procurement.
