The project, titled "[FWKORD0029] Hill Barton Railway Bridge - Major Refurbishments," is located in Exeter and falls within the construction industry. The procurement followed a selective method and the contract was signed on 6th July 2026, with an active period from 7th July 2026 to 31st March 2027. The procurement process was conducted below the threshold as an award under a framework, focusing on works including delamination surveys and descaling, scaffold arrangements, and additional on-site facilities.
