## Summary

National Highways has awarded a contract titled "T0579 Asset resilience of asphalt surfaced pavements (roads, footways and cycle tracks)" under the industry category of research and development services and related consultancy services. The contract focuses on addressing key risks to pavement assets caused by climate change and heavier goods vehicles. The location of the contract's services is in London, United Kingdom, with the award process now complete as of August 2024. The procurement was carried out using a selective method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract period started on 30th July 2024 and will continue until 31st March 2026, involving a total value of £175,258.26 GBP.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses involved in infrastructure resilience, particularly those specialising in research, development, and consultancy regarding road surfaces. SMEs are encouraged to consider this opportunity, given the suitability criteria specified. Companies with expertise in handling climate-related risks and adapting infrastructure for future transportation needs, including the accommodation of newer, heavier vehicles, will find this tender particularly relevant. The work will help drive innovation and efficiency in road-based freight, aligning with net zero objectives, thereby opening doors for sustained business growth in the transportation and environmental consultancy sectors.

## Notice

The project aims to review and respond to key risks for pavement assets linked to climate change and the emerging trend of longer, heavier goods vehicles. Acute weather events of the past few years and projections of future climate indicate what the SRN's pavement asset will need to withstand to offer the same level of service to customers going forwards, and these have been assimilated as high-level potential risks. Net zero objectives are already prompting discussion of how road-based freight can be made more efficient, whether that is through adoption of new powertrains that might necessitate accommodation of heavy batteries as part of the unladen vehicle weight, or by transporting greater payloads in a single journey. Both future climate and future vehicle characteristics are likely to require adaptations to current approaches used to design, build and maintain the pavement asset.
