## Summary

The procurement process is led by Highways England for their project titled "556304 - A52 Stragglethorpe Road U-Turn Ban," which falls under the category of traffic monitoring services. This project aims to assess the impact of a U-turn ban at the Stragglethorpe Road junction in the East Midlands, with a reported value of £30,000. The tender was published on 16 August 2019, and the tender period ended on 30 August 2019, with the contract period scheduled from 16 September to 14 October 2019. The procurement method used is an open procedure, suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in traffic monitoring and management services. Companies with experience in conducting trials and implementing traffic control measures would be particularly well-suited to compete. Engaging in this project could provide SMEs with valuable experience and visibility, potentially leading to further contracts in the transport and infrastructure sector.

## Notice

The principle objective of this project is to understand the implications of implementing an A52 eastbound to westbound U-turn ban at the Stragglethorpe Road junction on access for properties fronting A52 westbound carriageway between Stragglethorpe Road and Bassingfield Lane, and from Bassingfield Lane itself. The scope of this work is to undertake a trial to monitor the existing situation in terms of length of gaps in A52 eastbound traffic flows near the affected properties and at Bassingfield Lane and then to implement the temporary U-turn ban with associated signal controller specification and monitor the situation post implementation.
