Intelligent Transport Systems including traffic signals, variable message signs and car park signs

About

Southend-on-Sea City Council is looking to appoint a suitable Supplier to supply, install and maintain intelligent transport systems and associated equipment including traffic signals, Variable Message Signs, RGB Signs, School Warning Signs, Car Park Guidance Signs, Car Park Count controllers and Vehicle Speed Activated Signs.

All equipment is within the City of Southend and the Council will provide the Supplier with access to an asset management system where all faults and issues will be logged.

The Supplier will be required to interrogate the Council's system on a daily basis to pick up faults, attend to rectify faults and then update the Council's system to confirm that the fault has been rectified.

The Council will provide free login access for the Supplier to the Council's remote monitoring system Car Park Guidance and VMS signs and urban traffic control system.

The Council currently uses Swarco RMS for remote monitoring of Traffic Signals, Swarco Zephyr for the car park guidance and Yunex UTC for urban traffic control.

The Client will replace the Swarco RMS and Swarco Zephyr systems with Swarco My City (anticipated to be after the commencement of this contract).

The Supplier will also be required to undertake annual inspections and internal cleaning of equipment.

The Supplier will also be required to supply and install new equipment.

This will vary throughout the life of the contract due to the level of funding available and/or external grant money becoming available.
