Summary of the contracting process

The North Yorkshire Council commissioned replacement of the Little Ribston bridleway bridge, serving the Little Ribston and North Deighton area of North Yorkshire. The works covered setting up and securing the site with welfare facilities; removing any remaining parts of the old bridge foundations; designing temporary cofferdams and water-pumping arrangements; installing timber piles and toe boards; building new abutments from precast concrete blocks; transporting and assembling a 12-metre kit bridge; and tidying and reinstating the site. This is a small civil engineering and bridge construction project, rather than a supply-only purchase. The requirement was managed for the Council by the awarded contractor, Adrian Morrison and Son.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The Council used a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was awarded to Adrian Morrison and Son. The contract was signed on 18 September 2026 and runs from 5 to 23 October 2026. Its value is £37,225.36 excluding VAT and £44,670.43 including VAT. The evaluation criteria and their weighting are not stated in the available procurement details. The award relates to bridge replacement works in North Yorkshire; no separate award value is published. The awarded supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise. No separate award date is recorded.

This award demonstrates demand from The North Yorkshire Council for a contractor able to deliver a complete, short-duration bridleway bridge replacement, including temporary works around water, foundation removal, timber piling, precast abutments and assembly of a kit bridge. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to coordinate site security and welfare, design and manage cofferdams and pumping, handle bridge components safely, and reinstate the site after construction. The Council used limited competition for this below-threshold works package, so relevant experience in comparable local-authority bridge and civil engineering projects would help a supplier demonstrate suitability through a restricted route. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that a smaller contractor can deliver this scale of work; the scope nevertheless calls for practical construction capability across several connected stages.
