Highways England has launched a £340m framework for construction works required to maintain, repair and renew roads in the east of England.
The construction works framework (CWF) will be made up of several contractors from different specialist areas who will be required work together to deliver network improvement and maintenance schemes within the east region, which includes the counties of Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk.
A contractor may bid for and be appointed to up to three lots.

The CWF will be made up of eight lots, which cover works including road lighting and electrical, general civils, technology and road marking.
Highways England said it may also use the framework to deliver works in any other operational area as a contingent measure.
The framework is set to run for 54 months which includes a six-month mobilisation period.
