## Summary

The Department for Transport (DfTc) has awarded a contract for the project titled "Welfare Appraisal Under Land-Use Change" in the category of Economic Research Services. The tender, valued at £300,000 GBP, was carried out through a selective procurement method with a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The contract period runs from February 21, 2024, to April 21, 2026. The tender deadline was December 8, 2023, with the award date set on February 21, 2024, in London, England.

This contract, won by the University of Leeds, presents opportunities for businesses in the research services sector looking to participate in the appraisal of transport projects under land use change. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) would be well-suited to compete for this tender. For those interested in economic and social research services, this project offers a chance to work with the Department for Transport on developing appraisal guidance for transport projects under evolving land-use conditions.

## Notice

The Department is seeking to commission research to develop its approach to appraising the benefits of transport projects under conditions of land-use change (henceforth referred to as 'Level 3' appraisal). This has long been recognised as a challenge for the current 'fixed land-use' (or 'Levels 1 and 2') approach to appraisal. The primary objective of this research is to develop and propose robust, proportionate and practical TAG appraisal guidance on the appraisal of transport projects under land use change.
