Indicative signal — not an official notice. This is an indicative signal produced by QuorumInsight from a public council meeting. It is not an official procurement or tender notice, is not published or endorsed by the council, and no notice has necessarily been issued on Find a Tender or Contracts Finder. Value, route to market and timing are estimates inferred from what was said and may change. Always verify directly with the authority before acting.
There is £2.646 million of HS2/DFT funding, Road Safety Funding allocation covering construction, utility diversions, design, supervision, procurement and contingency.
Also said in the meeting
“the officers have recommended a way forward to proceed with a traffic light signal scheme out for Longley Crossroads, with additional local safety enhancements to respond to the concerns raised through the calling.”
“Construction estimate is approximately £1 million for this original signal scheme. Option 3 may be slightly higher subject to detailed design but expected to remain within the overall allocation.”
