## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Newport City Council focused on the assessment of George St. Bridge approach spans, labelled as tender "NCC202500189". This project fell under the industry category of bridge-inspection services and was located in the UKL21 region of the United Kingdom. The procurement was conducted through a direct method, specifically labelled as "below threshold - without competition." The contract commenced on 8th September 2025 and concluded by 22nd September 2025. As of June 2026, the contract status was noted as terminated with the rationale that the contract had been completed.

This tender presented considerable opportunities for SMEs specialising in infrastructure assessment services, particularly those capable of conducting detailed testing and analysis of structural integrity. The award went to CAN Access, a small to medium-sized enterprise (SME), showcasing the potential for similar-sized businesses to secure public contracts without competition. Business entities skilled in handling services within the parameters of Welsh devolved regulations would find such opportunities particularly noteworthy, as it allows for direct engagement with public authorities like Newport City Council and deliver focused, region-specific assessments.

## Notice

George St Bridge has recently failed an assessment and the weight limit has been reduced to 7.5T until further core sampling can take place to identify the true loading potential of the approach spans. This may identify that strengthening work will be required before other maintenance schemes can be started.
