"RFI-Info -Specialist Road Safety Engineering Support"

Tender description

The Government of Jersey (GoJ) acting through the department of Infrastructure & Environment (The “Authority”) is seeking to procure Specialist Services covering strategic road safety, operational road safety / traffic engineering. This is for a period of one year with a one year optional extension. The approval of the 2022 ‘Island Road Safety Review’ recommendations and subsequent ‘Collision and Casualty Reduction Plan 2025 to 2034’ (to achieve a 50% reduction in killed and seriously injured), has created a need within Government for specialist advice from a road safety professional in key specialist work areas. This includes: ? The application of the international ‘Safe System Approach to Road Safety’ ? iRAP risk based route assessment technique and operational application ? Projects aligned within the GOJ ‘Collision and Casualty Reduction Plan’ ? Road traffic collision database analysis and reporting (iMAAP) In all areas there is a strong case for a significant on-Island presence. This is important for overall responsiveness if the Government is to meet it’s casualty reduction target. Experience of working in an Island jurisdiction including awareness of government, way of life, differences of process and legislation, along with a practical engineering knowledge of the Island's constrained road network and collision profile is of high importance.
