In plain English

Ealing Council is looking for contractors to handle all their road and pavement maintenance and improvements across the borough for several years. This is a large contract split into two main areas: fixing potholes and maintaining existing roads, or building new cycle lanes and improving junctions.

What the buyer wants

• Lot 1: Reactive emergency repairs (potholes, broken pavements), routine maintenance (gully cleaning, road markings), planned resurfacing and repaving, winter gritting, and minor structural repairs to highways and pavements • Lot 2: Planned improvements including new or upgraded footways, cycle infrastructure, bus priority schemes, junction improvements, safety schemes, sustainable drainage features, traffic calming measures, and resurfacing as part of larger capital projects
