## Summary

Southampton City Council is planning a significant procurement process titled "Northam Bridge Replacement," under the works category of the construction industry. This project entails the replacement of a current single carriageway bridge with two new structures in Southampton, United Kingdom. The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with detailed project documents indicating that the communication for the tender will commence by 1st November 2026. The contract period is scheduled from 1st January 2027 to 31st December 2029, highlighting a long-term project scope in the UKJ3 region. The legal basis for this procurement is referenced under the UKPGA 2023/54 legislation.

This tender creates robust opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses specialising in bridge construction and large-scale infrastructure projects. Companies with expertise in civil engineering and construction, especially those experienced in handling public infrastructure projects, would be well-suited to compete. The project, planned by a public authority sub-central government entity, underscores the potential for established firms to expand their portfolio and leverage a significant infrastructure upgrade to bolster their credentials and market reputation. Moreover, the extended timeline of the project suggests opportunities for sustained business engagement over a multi-year period.

## Notice

Two New Bridges: The single carriageway will be replaced by two new structures. The first new bridge will be built alongside the current one, after which traffic will switch over so the old structure can be demolished and replaced.
