## Summary

The North Lanarkshire Council has awarded a contract to AECOM for the development of the NLC Local Transport Strategy. The procurement method used was direct award without competition. The award was valued at £135,000 and falls under the services category. The tender aimed to address the Scottish Government's Climate Emergency declaration and work towards creating a sustainable, inclusive transport system.

This opportunity would particularly interest businesses in traffic control services, civil engineering consultancy, transport systems consultancy, highways consultancy, and infrastructure works consultancy. By engaging in this tender, businesses will contribute to shaping the future of transport infrastructure in North Lanarkshire Council's jurisdiction, aligning with Scotland's transport vision and climate action goals outlined in the National Transport Strategy 2. The contract provides a platform for companies to showcase their expertise in sustainable transport solutions and policy-driven delivery plans.

## Notice

The existing North Lanarkshire Council (NLC) LTS was developed in 2010. Since then, the Scottish Government declared a Climate Emergency (April 2019). Furthermore, National Transport Strategy 2 (NTS2, February 2020) set out an ambitious and compelling vision for Scotland's transport system over the next 20 years to achieve a sustainable, inclusive, safe and accessible transport system which helps to deliver a healthier, fairer and more prosperous Scotland for communities, businesses and visitors. NTS2 shows transport as an enabler, supporting priorities to reduce inequalities, take climate action, deliver inclusive economic growth, and improve health and wellbeing.The consultant appointment to develop the LTS will be required to:Provide suitable qualified staff to confirm NLC's requirements for the development of the next LTS, work through all stages of development as per Transport Scotland's 'Local Transport Strategy: Draft Guidance' and produce a 10-year LTS for NLC, to replace the 2010 strategy.The LTS shall outline the future direction for the Council's approach to the development and upkeep of the transport infrastructure within the Local Authority area. Furthermore, the LTS shall also outline how the Local Authority will meet requirements to deliver the obligations set out in NTS2 and SPT's Regional Transport Strategy and other policy drivers and provide a delivery plan for meeting local challenges and objectives. This should take cognisance of the suite of sustainable transport studies undertaken on behalf of NLC between 2018 and 2020 and NLC's Active Travel Strategy (ATS). A monitoring and evaluation framework for the LTS will also be developed.
