Legacy Concrete Roads Reconstruction Framework

Greater London

Project Description

National Highways have awarded a national framework, the Legacy Concrete Roads Reconstruction (LCRR) framework, that allows the delivery of concrete roads reconstruction schemes. The framework scope for the LCRR framework includes: - design and subsequent construction services for: - demolition of existing concrete pavements, - reconstruction of pavements (including new pavement furniture and markings) - design and delivery of associated temporary traffic management solutions, - when instructed: - involvement in optioneering, - design and construction of alterations to those legacy assets which interface with the replacement pavements' designs, which may include sub-surface drainage, street furniture and its foundations and signage, - design and construction to replace legacy central reserve with a hardened solution and overlay legacy concrete pavement with a long-life pavement solution (including new pavement furniture and markings), - performing principal designer and principal contractor duties as defined under the "Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015" ("CDM Regulations 2015"), - carbon capture recording and reporting, - recovery, recycling and reuse of arisings during the delivery of a scheme, - engagement with all identified stakeholders, and - identification, recording and realisation of programme efficiencies. The LCRR framework is six years in duration to ensure alignment to and coverage of the RIS3 funding period (2026-31) but also to overlap with the beginning of RIS4 (2031-36) in case of any delays in approvals of the strategy or funding for RIS4. This alignment of duration with our funding periods is required from a procurement, commercial and operational perspective because it provides greater efficiency and certainty that the strategic plan for which funding is received can be delivered consistently; clarity for future procurements and sufficient time to embed learning, best practice and investment in innov...
