Tender: Shropshire Council Highway Repairs, Patching and Minor Works Contract – 5 to 9 Year Term

About

Shropshire Council is seeking a contractor to deliver highway maintenance and minor works as part of its mixed economy delivery model, combining in-house delivery with specialist external providers. The contract covers repair and maintenance of the local highway network including minor repairs such as potholes and depressions in carriageways, footways and cycleways, carriageway edges, ironwork, kerbs and channels, footways and paved areas, road markings and signs, street furniture, drainage grips, crack and joint sealing and alternative repair solutions (for example thermal repair treatments, spray injection patching, recycled rubber and other alternative mastic solutions); winter and emergency support including gritting, snow clearance and response to incidents and flooding; and programmed works such as hand and machine patching programmes, minor highway improvement schemes, defect backlog programmes and Category 2L (low risk) repair programmes. Services will be instructed on an as-required basis and do not constitute guaranteed volumes. The contract term is five years with an automatic extension of up to four additional years subject to achievement of defined KPI performance thresholds, and the Council seeks a contractor able to provide cost-effective, high-quality, innovative maintenance solutions that support asset performance, service resilience, value for money and wider social value outcomes.
