This project, classified under the services industry (CPV code 34924000), has a contract value of £5,948,852 and is based in Bristol, England, with delivery required in both the South West and West Midlands regions.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the engineering and construction sectors, particularly those specialising in road signage and traffic management systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to compete, given the project's scope for tailored service provision and potential collaboration with larger firms like Costain ITS Ltd., who was awarded the contract.
