Tender description

In 2014, North East Lincolnshire Council procured a study into the provision of a series of strategic highway links on the western outer periphery of Grimsby, North East Lincolnshire, in anticipation of a high-growth Local Plan. The study showed that a number of potential link roads may provide good value for money, while assisting in the accommodation of traffic growth due to increases in housing and industry. The Council is now seeking a suitably qualified Consultant to produce an Outline Business Case for 2 of the strategic links as per the above study. This will consist of a link between the A1136 — A46, and subsequently from the A46 to the A16.
