## Summary

The Humber Bridge Board is undertaking a procurement process titled "Barrier Safety Improvement Scheme" under the industry category of engineering works and construction, specifically for bridge and civil engineering works. Located in Hessle, United Kingdom, this open tender seeks to enhance safety on the Humber Bridge by extending footpath parapet heights and replacing footpath expansion joints. The procurement process follows an open procedure and is currently in the tender stage, with a deadline for submissions on 3 June 2026. Interested parties should note the award period ends on 17 June 2026, and the contract is set to commence on 29 June 2026, continuing through 30 August 2027.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for construction firms specialising in civil and bridge engineering. The project value is estimated at £5,000,000, with potential growth should additional options be pursued. Suitable businesses include those with capabilities in structural steelwork and engineering design, holding relevant certifications such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001. The contract demands expertise in NHSS standards for bridgeworks and the corrosion protection of ferrous materials. As the procurement process evaluates technical quality besides price, firms with a strong portfolio in delivering high-quality, socially valuable engineering solutions will be well-placed to compete and potentially expand their footprint in the public sector.
