Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Westmorland and Furness Council procured construction works for the reconstruction of the Old Row, Stainton highway retaining wall in the North West. The project covers the design and reconstruction of approximately 7 metres of damaged retaining wall, together with masonry repairs, including localised patch repairs and partial rebuilding of further collapsed sections. It also includes vegetation removal and localised scour repairs. The work is intended to address damage affecting highway infrastructure and associated river-side structures. This is a civil engineering and construction requirement, classified under CPV 45000000. Delivery is at Old Row, Stainton, within the council’s area in the North West of England, and involves work in or beside a river environment.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a call-off from a framework. The tender submission deadline was 4 September 2026 at 12:00, and the contract was awarded on 14 September 2026 to Metcalfe Plant Hire Ltd. The awarded value is £83,243.93 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 16 June 2027 to 20 September 2027. Construction is planned for the 2027 summer in-river working window, subject to the required environmental permits. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Westmorland and Furness Council is the buying organisation, and the award covers the retaining-wall reconstruction, associated masonry repairs, vegetation removal and scour-repair works described above.

For a future requirement of this kind, credible suppliers would need to combine civil engineering and construction capability with practical experience of highway retaining walls and masonry repair. Relevant delivery strength would include designing and rebuilding damaged wall sections, carrying out controlled partial reconstruction, repairing localised scour and removing vegetation around infrastructure. Contractors should be able to plan and manage works in a river setting, coordinate environmental permitting and work within a restricted in-river construction window. The requirement is well suited to an SME with the plant, site supervision and specialist workforce needed for a small but technically sensitive infrastructure project. Experience working for local authorities, managing highway interfaces and delivering safe works near water would strengthen a competitor’s position when this buyer next tests the market.
