Summary of the contracting process

Denbighshire County Council procured works to replace the existing Pont Rhyd yr Hydd bridge with a new bridge. The requirement is classified as construction work and covers one project, with two alternative designs available for pricing. The council is based in Ruthin and is the contracting authority responsible for the work. The appointed contractor, M.W.T Civil Engineering Ltd of Colwyn Bay, is a small or medium-sized enterprise specialising in civil engineering delivery. The project is relevant to contractors able to undertake bridge replacement and associated construction works for a Welsh local authority, including firms that can develop and price alternative design solutions within a single bridge project.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. M.W.T Civil Engineering Ltd was awarded the contract on 28 August 2026. The contract was signed on that date and is active. Its value is £91,426.69 excluding VAT, or £109,712.03 including VAT. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 6 October 2026, with a maximum extension date of 30 October 2026. An extension is possible if required and agreed with the council. The contract includes two alternative designs to price for the project. The procurement used one lot, which is complete, and the award relates to that lot.

For a supplier assessing future work from Denbighshire County Council, this procurement demonstrates demand for small-scale bridge replacement delivered as a construction works contract through a limited, below-threshold competition. A credible competitor would need civil engineering capability, relevant bridge construction capacity and the practical ability to deliver a complete replacement project for a local authority. The requirement also favoured suppliers able to price alternative technical designs for the same project, rather than offering only a single fixed solution. The appointed business was an SME, indicating that this type of council requirement can be delivered by a suitably capable smaller civil engineering contractor. Firms should be prepared to manage agreed extensions where project delivery requires them.
