Who won: Rotherham Mainline Station Transportation Consultancy

About this contract

The Council is working with partners to promote the development of Rotherham Gateway Station. This mainline and tram-train station will be a catalyst for growth, improving local, regional, and national rail connectivity for all communities and businesses across the Borough. In February 2025, the Rotherham Gateway Station OBC was submitted to South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority ("SYMCA") and the Department for Transport for assurance and approval to release £11.35 million for Full Business Case development. The Full Business Case will incorporate all the work required to get the Station to delivery stage. The Outline Business Case (OBC) has been assured and received final ministerial sign-off in November. To progress to Full Business Case (FBC), the Council requires the appointment of a multi-disciplinary team of consultants to develop workstreams in preparation for the start of the FBC.
