It has an annual expenditure of over £1bn on goods and services and a population of 1.6m.

The Council provides a wide range of personal and strategic services on behalf of its residents, operating in partnership with the NHS Kent and Medway Clinical Commissioning Group, 12 district councils, and 289 parish/town councils.

KCC consists of four directorates: \r \r Adult Social Care and Health; \r Children, Young People and Education; \r Growth, Environment and Transport; and \r Strategic and Corporate Services. \r This service is being commissioned on behalf of the Growth, Environment and Transport directorate. \r \r The scheme requires the design and construction of a new road (Phase 1) and improvements of an existing junction (Phase 1a) to form part of a new strategic highway known as the Sturry Link Road (SLR) as shown in the "Scheme Details and Requirements" document.
