Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council procured civil engineering works to strengthen Great Glen Bridge on London Road. The requirement is road and highway infrastructure work, delivered at the bridge in Great Glen, in the East Midlands. The scheme is identified as ST0120. It concerns a specific bridge-strengthening project rather than general highway engineering services.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Danaher & Walsh (Civil Engineering) Ltd. The council ran a further competition through YPO’s Civil Engineering Works and Services dynamic purchasing system, in its road and highway infrastructure category. The award was made on 16 September 2026, for £400,000. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The published information does not state the evaluation basis.

This award demonstrates demand from Leicestershire County Council for bridge-strengthening work delivered through a civil engineering and highway infrastructure route. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to deliver structural strengthening at a road bridge and undertake the associated highway infrastructure work. The council marked this procurement as suitable for SMEs, and the selected supplier is an SME, indicating that this scale of specialist project can be undertaken by a smaller civil engineering business. Experience relevant to bridge works and the capacity to deliver a defined infrastructure scheme would be commercially pertinent when competing for this buyer’s comparable requirement.
