Purpose of Report: The report will provide an update on progress of the proposed security measures (Hostile Vehicle Measures) scheme.

The report will provide an update on the scheme including the procurement process. The report will inform Members about the programme of work and what can be achieved in the months ahead.

Given that Christmas 2022 is approaching, the project team will confirm the contractors assessment of what is deliverable and what temporary arrangements will be needed.

The report will ask Members to note progress on the scheme and give delegated authority for the Director of Environment, Transport and Planning to accept the winning tender in order to make an award to the contractor to commence work in line with the anticipated programme.

This item has been deferred to 18 August 2022 the reason for this is as stated: The contractors tendering for the work have requested more time to enable them to submit prices therefore the report has been delayed to accommodate this request.
