The term "planned" refers to long-term works - for example, enhancement projects and large-scale renewals. Short-term "unplanned" works like emergency repairs are not included. The scope of this study includes two key factors in relation to Highways England's roadworks management: 1) the length / spacing of roadworks and duration / intensity of work, and 2) communication to road users and the public. Where the comparison is valid, the project will compare their approach within its operational regions, including Design Build Finance Operate areas (DBFO), with local authorities and highways infrastructure managers across comparable countries. Additional information: Prospective bidders are advised to register their interest on our eTendering as all further communications will be via that portal. Under no circumstances should prospective bidders contact any member of the ORR in relation to this tender other than a member of the procurement team. Bidders should upload clarification questions and tenders by the dates/times set out in the documentation. ## CPV classification Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/36df8db9-3209-4e19-a98e-7db56bb7f717) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
