Tender description
Kent County Council, as part of the Kent and Medway Resilience Forum (KMRF), currently provide on road, Community Safety Accreditation Scheme (CSAS) resource, to assist KMRF partners with managing disruption on the Kent Road network when there are delays at the Kent ports. As part of KMRF’s continued work to manage border disruption in Kent, Kent County Council are seeking to appoint a Supplier to provide CSAS accredited operatives, to assist other partners (Kent Police and National Highways) in managing and directing traffic as set out in the KMRF Operation Fennel Plan. This includes operatives within the Operation Brock footprint on the M20 and also in and around as part of the Dover Traffic Management Plan. With the introduction and embedding of enhanced border checks as part of the European Entry Exit System (EES) possibly leading to increased and more prolonged periods of disruption, the Council, on behalf of KMRF, may also require Police accredited CSAS operatives holding other CSAS accreditations (Security Industry Authority (SIA)) to manage traffic and safety in designated sites off of the public highway. Should these sites be required there will be an additional requirement for non-CSAS accredited Traffic Marshals to assist with Site Management duties.
