## Summary

Durham County Council is overseeing the procurement process for the "Provision of Traffic Management" project, which falls under the services industry category and is located in the North East region of the United Kingdom. This tender is currently at the award stage, with a contract valued at £15 million awarded on 6th March 2018, and the contract period running from 1st April 2018 to 31st March 2022.
