## About this tender

National Highways (the Client) is seeking the provision of services to undertake research into Diverging Diamond Interchanges (DDI).

STAGE 1 SCOPE:

Overall, the aims of this task are to:

- Measure the safety performance of DDIs to clearly understand how or if they are safer than existing junction types;
- Examine potential risks and hazards such as Wrong Way Driving;
- Review international standards and determine relevance to UK; and
- Review the DMRB to understand how requirements and advice would need to change to encompass Diverging Diamond Interchanges.

The award of this work package is initially for Stage 1 only (see background).

Subject to further funding, a STAGE 2 FEASIBILITY task would be undertaken in the next financial year:

- Identify a location where the layout can be retrofitted and modelled to existing infrastructure such as at an existing dumbbell roundabout at a grade separated junction and then examine scalability across the network;
- Investigate how any new risks such as Wrong Way Driving or failure of traffic signals can be reduced or removed;
- Measure the environmental and economic benefits such as land take reduction and carbon saving; and
- Provide recommendations for requirements, advice and drawings to update the DMRB and update the standards CD 122 and CD 123. This is anticipated to be a report and not an update to the standards in case the findings do not support changing the DMRB.
