Scope

Description

As part of preparations for the New Public Realm Service Herefordshire Council wishes to procure a new Highways and Public Realm Schemes Framework. The new framework will be used for the delivery of highways and public realm schemes forming part of a mixed economy model approach for the Council and which will run alongside the new Public Realm Contract that will come into place on 1st June 2026.

At this stage, it is envisaged that the framework could include Lots that allow for the delivery of, but are not limited to, schemes such as civil engineering, carriageway and footway surfacing, surface dressing and other thin surface treatments, highway structures, and traffic signals. It is envisaged that a Lot for the provision of tree surveys could also be included.
