## Summary

Halton Borough Council commissioned construction of composite-material footbridges, together with the associated works needed to keep watercourses, public rights of way and pathways operating safely. This is civil engineering and footbridge construction work, including infrastructure serving public access routes and waterways. Delivery is within the borough of Halton, in Cheshire, England. The requirement is for physical construction and related operational-safety works, rather than a standalone supply of bridge components. It is relevant to contractors experienced in footbridge construction and works around watercourses and public paths.

The procurement is complete and awarded. Halton Borough Council made a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, under a single lot. Ecological Landscapes Management Limited was selected. The contract was signed on 27 August 2026 and runs from 27 August 2026 to 26 August 2030. Its stated value is £90,000 excluding VAT (£108,000 including VAT). The procurement data gives no separate evaluation criteria or scoring basis; the route recorded was a direct award without competition.

This award shows that Halton Borough Council buys composite-material footbridge construction alongside works needed to ensure the safe operation of watercourses, public rights of way and pathways. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to demonstrate practical capability in constructing footbridges and delivering the associated works in settings involving waterways and public access routes. The successful supplier was a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that a smaller specialist contractor can deliver this type of council works contract. The direct award route used for this procurement did not test competing tenders, so it does not establish a scored technical or commercial profile for the selected supplier.
