Road Traffic Surveys DPS
Framework Description
Warwickshire County Council's Road Traffic Surveys dynamic purchasing system (DPS) is a route for buying traffic and transport survey services. Published under notice 006515-2025, it runs until 23 February 2029 and stays open to new suppliers throughout, so survey firms can apply to join at any point and then compete for individual survey contracts.
Context & Use Case
Highways and transport teams use traffic surveys to plan schemes, assess road safety and support planning and environmental work. The DPS lets the council run quick competitions among admitted survey firms whenever it needs data, from simple counts to larger studies, rather than tendering each survey.
Scope of Services
Traffic volume and flow surveys Speed surveys Origin and destination studies Pedestrian and cyclist counts Parking surveys Data analysis and reporting

Who Can Apply
Suits traffic data and survey companies of all sizes, including small specialist firms. As a Live DPS, survey firms can apply to join now and compete for work until February 2029.
Buyer Benefits
The council gets survey data quickly from firms already checked, with competition on each requirement. Being able to admit new firms keeps the supplier pool current as survey technology changes. Buyers also value accurate, well-presented data delivered on time, since surveys often feed scheme decisions and deadlines.
Next Steps
Read notice 006515-2025 on Find a Tender and apply for admission. Prepare evidence of survey methods and equipment, data quality checks, staff safety on the highway, and reporting examples. Once admitted, respond quickly to competitions, as survey work is often time-bound.
