## Summary

Wolverhampton City Council commissioned traffic signal works for the second part of Phase 2 of its City Centre Public Realm Improvement Programme. The work covers junctions on the route between North Street and Pipers Row, including upper Darlington Street, Queen Square and Lichfield Street. It involves removing the existing traffic signal system and replacing it with an upgraded system integrated with the new public realm infrastructure. The procurement is for road traffic control and signalling equipment and associated installation works. The programme derives from the council’s Connected Places Strategy. Delivery is in Wolverhampton.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to SWARCO UK & Ireland Ltd. The contract was signed on 18 September 2026 and runs from 21 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £140,814 excluding VAT (£168,976.80 including VAT). The requirement was procured using the GCA RM6347 framework; the recorded procurement method is below-threshold, with no further method detail. The procurement was organised as one lot. The available award information identifies the supplier and the road signalling equipment, but does not set out evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements.

For a future requirement of this kind from Wolverhampton City Council, a credible competitor would need to supply and install road traffic signal systems, remove existing equipment and integrate upgraded signals with public realm infrastructure. Experience working on signalised junctions along an urban route and coordinating installation with wider streetscape works would be directly relevant. The selected supplier was a large company, indicating that the council has placed this requirement with a supplier able to deliver the equipment and installation as a combined package. The procurement used the GCA RM6347 framework, so suppliers seeking comparable work should consider whether they can compete through that route. The single-lot approach means the buyer procured the route’s signal works together rather than separating the sites.

## Notice

City of Wolverhampton Council are seeking an organisation to provide Traffic Signals for specific sites. The City Centre Public Realm Improvement Programme was derived from CWC's Connected Places Strategy which was approved in 2018. It is required to design and construct Phase 2 in two parts, to align with external funding timeframes. Part 2 covers upper Darlington Street, Queen Square and Lichfield Street. It is required to undertake traffic signal works at the junctions along this route, between North Street and Pipers Row, to strip out the existing system and replace with a new upgraded system, in line with the new public realm infrastructure.
