## Summary

Peterborough City Council is the contracting authority overseeing the Lincoln Road Improvements Project, focusing on utility diversion works, with the industry category being construction work for telephone lines. Located in Peterborough, this award stage of the procurement process saw the contract signed on 9th June 2025 and is set to run from 26th June 2025 to 25th June 2026. The procurement method was direct and conducted below the threshold without competition, allowing for an exemption to enable advanced payments to proceed. The gross contract value is £100,196.39, under the statutory management of the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991.

This tender presents business growth opportunities for companies involved in utility or construction services, particularly those specialising in infrastructure improvements. The project requires skilled diversionary work due to its alignment and topographical changes, making it well-suited for SMEs with expertise in highway-related projects. CA Telecom UK, serving as the supplier, illustrates the key role of businesses adept in handling complex utility diversions in public sector contracts, providing a pathway for similar firms to engage with sub-central government projects across the UK.

## Notice

Many of the highway improvement projects undertaken by Peterborough City Council (acting in its capacity as local highway authority) require some form of utility diversion works to be undertaken. This may be due to the fact that the carriageway or footway alignment is being changed, the road geometry is to be altered or topographical levels are having to be adjusted. The process for dealing with utility diversions is prescribed in the New Roads and Street Works Act (NRSWA) 1991 and consists of notification to the Statutory Undertakers via a number of dedicated stages, direct engagement with them, the production of estimates for diversion works and the mechanism by which payments are made. The council has a statutory duty to follow this process on all highway related projects. The Lincoln Road Improvements Project is one of a number of projects that is part funded by the Towns Fund. In order to undertake the improvement works City Fibre apparatus requires diverting. Therefore an exemption is sought to make an advanced payment to City Fibre apparatus to enable the main highway works to proceed for the scheme planned.
