Decision

Following consideration of the officer report, appendices, and discussion, the Executive:

1. Approved the award of the contract for Dunball Roundabout Improvement scheme to the supplier identified in the attached Appendix A (confidential information), following a competitive tender process. Total contract value of £6,626,216.00.

1. Approved the re-scoping of Cannon/Cross Rifles scheme.

1. Consented to delegate to the Service Director for Infrastructure and Transport, the decision to apportion the funding within the Levelling Up Fund pot to deliver the Dunball and re-scoped Cannon/Cross Rifles schemes.

1. Consented to delegate to the Service Director for Infrastructure and Transport, the decision to deliver the A38MRN project through the Dunball delivery contract, subject to funding approval.
2. Agreed the case for applying the exempt information provision as set out in the Local Government Act 1972, Schedule 12A and therefore to treat the attached confidential Appendix A in confidence, as it contains commercially sensitive information, and as the case for the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing that information.

All recommendations are contingent upon a favourable outcome from DfT regarding the PAR submitted. No contracts will be signed unless and until approval is received from DfT to amend the scope of the Cannon/Cross Rifles scheme.
