National Highways is seeking to procure a supplier to undertake aerodynamic testing of all gantry types to be deployed on to the Lower Thames Crossing (LTC) project. The successful tenderer will provide subject matter expertise, computational analysis and specialist aerodynamic testing facilities to undertake virtual and physical structural performance testing that can replicate the aerodynamic behaviours of the Strategic Road Network. The Lower Thames Crossing (LTC) is a new road to better connect Essex and Kent through a tunnel beneath the River Thames. Our purpose is to drive a change in how we deliver – connecting people to jobs, businesses to opportunities, leaving a skills legacy for the local community and championing biodiversity. low-carbon construction. Our ambition is to deliver the UK’s greenest road, and to do the right thing for local communities and the environment. We can only achieve this with the support of our supply chain, and it is therefore critical that for any supplier to be successful in winning work on LTC, they must demonstrate commitments to supporting delivery of our ambitions: - Supporting LTC to leave a skills legacy for the local community. This means recruiting a local workforce and upskilling the supply chain to enable meaningful progression into higher paid higher skilled work. - Delivering LTC with the lowest practicable carbon. This includes adoption of our ‘zero emissions’ intent, eradication of diesel on site and promotion of alternative sustainable fuels. - Helping to create successful opportunities by providing early careers roles, such as apprenticeships, and inspiring young people into construction through delivery of STEM engagement.
