## About this tender

Detector documents advice and guidance:

Highways England (HE) is looking to procure consultancy services to carry out data analysis, review and authoring of Requirements and Advice (RAD's) documents following deployment of different forms of vehicle detectors.

HE has recently introduced a process that enables suppliers to undertake requirements and performance self-certification (MCH 1529) in order to ensure at-market detector will provide a safe and fit for purpose method of detection whilst maintaining the integrity of input to HE system and applications. We are also seeking to produce official advice and guidance to support scheme design.

The purpose of which is to support Designers when deciding on which detector or combination of detector to be used, taking into account installation and commissioning operational experience.

HE has gathered traffic data and video footage from a live evaluation site located on the network to validate and support the creation of the RAD. The site used Side Fire Radars, inductive loops, and DfT (ATC) loops all within close proximity which has produce a number of reports regarding supplementary information pertaining to detectors being used on the network.

The evaluation site is operational and will be providing further traffic data which needs to be collected and analysis so that it can be used to validate and support relevant information to be translated into requirements and advice including guidance.

This task will also support delivery of Action 82 of the Health and Safety 5 Year Plan which is to 'Continue to develop Requirement & Advice documents to improve design standards and to improve the effectiveness of road safety evaluations'.
