Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Westmorland and Furness Council has awarded the contract titled "CWF Lot 2A - Southwaite (Petteril) Bridge - Arch Barrel Repairs" in the industry category of construction work, with a focus on masonry repairs. The project is located in England, United Kingdom, specifically impacting the Southwaite Bridge over the River Petteril. The contract was awarded to Metcalfe Plant Hire Ltd on 18th June 2025, with contract activities commencing from 19th June and set to conclude by 30th September 2025. The award stage confirms the need for repairing the arch barrel, which has deteriorated significantly, with estimated value amendments leading to a final amount of £45,184.01 from the original £30,000 expected sum.

This tender provides significant business growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in construction and masonry work, given the practical requirements for arch barrel repairs and pressure grouting. Businesses that can offer innovative masonry solutions and efficient repair services are well-suited to engage in such contracts. The focus on SMEs is explicit, although voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) may not find suitable applicability in this specific tender. Companies located within or nearby Kendal, or those with experience in similar structure repairs, can leverage their expertise to enhance their competitive positioning in future procurement endeavours.

Notice Information

Notice Title

CWF Lot 2A - Southwaite (Petteril) Bridge - Arch Barrel Repairs

Notice Description

Southwaite (Petteril) Bridge is located on the C3010 and is a 2 span masonry arch structure that provides access over the River Petteril, a Main River. The structure was widened on the upstream side on the 1840's and the older, downstream section was saddled in 1990. The contract will be to undertake masonry repairs on the older section of the eastern arch. The arch barrel has suffered from deep mortar loss and voiding over approx. 50% of the barrel and will require repairing via pressure grouting or another suitable method. There are also 2 areas of spall on either end of the arch that will require suitable repairs.
