This project falls under the construction industry category and is located in the UKK4 region of the United Kingdom. The procurement process is being conducted using an open procedure, which is above the financial threshold and covered by the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA).

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in construction, particularly those experienced in bridge refurbishment and infrastructure projects. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply due to the project's suitability criteria. The successful contractor will not only gain financial benefits from the project value but will also augment their portfolio with a prestigious project supported by Exeter City Council.

## Notice

A full specification of works has been produced by ECC's Principal Designer.
