This project, classified under the works category, aims to ensure the structural integrity of a masonry arch bridge that currently has a weight restriction following prior repairs. The tender was conducted through an open procurement method, with the contract signed on 12 April 2017, and the project is now active. Businesses seeking to engage in similar contracts should note that the address for the council is Kilmory, Lochgilphead, PA31 8RT. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the construction and civil engineering sectors, especially those specialising in infrastructure repair and maintenance. Firms with experience in drilling and construction, particularly those capable of undertaking similar structural work in a rural setting, would be ideally positioned to compete. The total value of the contract is £31,157, making it a valuable project for capable suppliers aiming to expand their portfolio within public sector contracts. ## Notice Knock Bridge is a 12.38m span Masonry Arch bridge on the Isle of Mull. It carries the B8035 Salen to Uluvalt road over the River Ba. The bridge is currently restricted to 7.5t MGW after undergoing repairs to one of the spandrel walls in February 2017. Argyll & Bute Council have programmed repairs to the remaining 3 spandrel walls as well as areas of the parapet which will start in April 2017. As part of these repairs, trenches will be dug in the carriageway to allow installation of ties. Following this work, Argyll & Bute Council require drilling for installation of a further 5 ties along with supply and installation of all 12 ties for the bridge. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Knock Bridge is a 12.38m span Masonry Arch bridge on the Isle of Mull.
