## Summary

The Leeds City Council has awarded a contract for the provision of HS2 East Technical Support services. The contract, valued at £25,780 GBP, was directly awarded to SLC Rail. The procurement process concluded on May 4, 2023, with a contract period starting on May 1, 2023, and ending on May 24, 2023. The project falls under the 'Technical services' category and is based in Yorkshire and the Humber.

This procurement opportunity presents a chance for businesses in the technical services sector to provide support for the HS2 East project. Companies with expertise in railway infrastructure planning and design could benefit from this contract. The direct award method was used for this procurement, creating an opportunity for specialised firms to contribute to the development of high-speed rail services in the region.

## Notice

The IRP proposed that the Eastern Leg of HS2 should only reach as far as East Midlands Parkway. It also made statements about the journey times and capacity that would be achievable between London, Birmingham and Derbyshire, Yorkshire and the North East by running on upgraded conventional railway north of the end of the high speed line. However, there are a number of challenges with this, including: * Whether the journey times between London and Sheffield are achievable * How Chesterfield will be served * The impact of IRP on journeys between Birmingham, Sheffield, Leeds, York and Newcastle * How the Northern Powerhouse Rail ambitions for increased frequencies and transformative journey * times between Sheffield and Leeds could be achieved (as these are not mentioned in the IRP) * The impact of HS2 services on existing services on the Midland Main Line Therefore an optimal solution needs to be identified that is not reliant on HS2 being built as originally conceived as far north as Leeds.
