UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cyngor Gwynedd procured construction works for Phase 4 of the Ffordd Penrhos active travel scheme in Bangor. The project extends eastwards from the already-built Phase 1 section at Coed Mawr. It involves improving and widening the existing footpath to create a shared-use path for people walking and cycling, together with construction of one controlled crossing. The work is located at Ffordd Penrhos, Bangor, in Gwynedd. This is a civil engineering and highway infrastructure project focused on improving an existing pedestrian route and providing a safer crossing, rather than a general active travel strategy or consultancy commission.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Cyngor Gwynedd ran a below-threshold open competition for a single lot. Alun Griffiths (Contractors) Limited was selected; the contract was signed on 4 August 2026, with a contract value of £524,945.66. The contract period runs from 17 August 2026 to 29 January 2027. The estimated value for the competition was £700,000. Price carried 60% of the evaluation and technical quality 40%. The published selection criterion refers bidders to the procurement documents. Electronic submission was allowed. The tender closing deadline was 24 July 2026, and the deadline for questions was 17 July 2026.

For future work of this kind with Cyngor Gwynedd, credible competitors will need to deliver practical highway and civil engineering works on an existing urban route: widening and upgrading footpaths for shared use and constructing controlled crossings. The selected contractor’s appointment shows that the buyer has procured this as a defined construction package, with price weighted more heavily than technical quality while still assigning quality a substantial role. Small and medium-sized businesses were considered suitable, so the requirement was not restricted to large contractors. Firms with relevant active travel or public-realm construction experience, capable site delivery and a competitive commercial offer are well placed to compete when comparable requirements return to this buyer. The available information does not establish specific accreditations, staffing thresholds or technical standards.
