## Summary

North Lanarkshire Council is initiating a procurement process for the construction of a new 1.3 km dual carriageway link from Motherwell to Ravenscraig, which includes the installation of two roundabouts, walking and cycling pathways, and sustainable urban drainage systems. This project is currently in the planning stage, with key documents made available as of 22nd October 2021. Interested parties are encouraged to submit completed questionnaires by 12th November 2021 to provide insights that will inform the final procurement approach. The total project value is estimated at £21 million, and the site is located within Motherwell, UK.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for construction and infrastructure businesses, particularly those specialising in roadworks, civil engineering, and landscaping. Companies well-suited to compete include local contractors, firms with experience in sustainable urban development, and those adept at managing large-scale infrastructure projects. Engaging in this procurement could help businesses expand their portfolios, increase regional presence, and contribute to the redevelopment efforts in the Ravenscraig area, a site with historical significance.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The procurement is for all works for the creation of a new 1.3km dual carriageway between Motherwell and Ravenscraig. These works comprise the new dual carriageway beginning at a new signalised roundabout at the junction of Airbles Road/Windmillhill Street, and heading northeast and crossing under the West Coast Main Line Railway (WCML) via a road-under-rail bridge and continuing on to connect to the existing roundabout on Robberhall Road, by the Ravenscraig Regional Sports Facility. The project incorporates new foot/cycleways, crossings for non-motorised users, a new roundabout within Ravenscraig providing for future local road access, new street lighting and signage, sustainable urban drainage and amendments to adjoining side roads. The works include: - Design from specimen (to be confirmed subject to outcome of PIN) - Groundworks and remediation - Construction of all infrastructure and associated hard and soft landscaping - Works to side roads including stopping up - Traffic management and control during works - Maintenance for period post completion Note. The WCML bridge crossing structure is being delivered under a separate contract with Network Rail. The division of works between lots and contracts, the pricing mechanism and the extent of employer engineer's design versus contractor's design are to be determined following responses to this PIN. Consideration is given to splitting in two Lots - Lot 1: Ground & Enabling Works and Lot 2: Main Construction
