The new £1bn Legacy Concrete Roads Reconstruction Framework replaces the existing arrangement, which was more focused on repairs than reconstruction.
Under the existing £400m five-year framework coming to a close, Morgan Sindall and John Sisk are carrying out major reconstruction works, with lifecycle extension works delivered by VolkerFitzpatrick, Colas, Dyer & Butler and Tarmac.
The next generation of framework will see a shift in spending focus towards full reconstruction and require around double the spend.
Applications are due back in March with the new framework going live in November this year.
The LCRR framework will be six years in duration to ensure alignment to and coverage of the RIS3 funding period (2025-30) but also to overlap with the beginning of RIS4 (2030-35).
