To approve the procurement plan for the joint
procurement (running via Reading Council's legal and procurement
team) for the replacement traffic signals maintenance
contract.
RESOLVED that the BFC procurement plan be approved.
The existing Berkshire-wide traffic signal maintenance contract (let over 10 years ago by Reading Borough Council) has been extended but must now be re-procured and modernised to meet current needs.
None. Failure to award a replacement contract, would result in the traffic signal infrastructure not being maintained, furthermore urgent signal outages etc., would not be attended in line with tight performance indicators putting road users at increased risk.
None.
