The purpose of this tender is to appoint a contractor to undertake skid resistance (Grip Tester) surveys on behalf of the West Midlands Authorities across their highway network. This is to be carried out in accordance with requirements of Highway Design Note CS228 in the Design Manual for Roads and Bridges.
