## Summary

Stirling Council is conducting the "C3 Bridges Replacement" project, which is currently in the Award stage. The procurement process initiated with an open tender, seeking qualified civil engineering contractors to replace two masonry arch bridges located within the boundaries of Stirling and Falkirk Councils. The tender, which has a total value of approximately £506,746, was signed on 18 January 2019. Key dates include the initial tender period, which closed on 16 November 2018, and the contract term expected to incorporate a one-year maintenance period thereafter.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for civil engineering firms, especially those with expertise in bridge construction and maintenance. Companies that can demonstrate robust financial standing, including a minimum annual turnover of £1 million over the last two financial years, as well as the necessary insurance coverages, would be well-positioned to compete. Additionally, adherence to quality assurance and environmental management standards will be essential for bidders aiming to secure contracts with Stirling Council.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

As part of the 2018/2019 Bridge Maintenance programme of works, Stirling Council are replacing two masonry arch bridges that take the C3, South Alloa to Larbert Road, across the Pow Burn. The bridges are both masonry arch structures that cross the Pow Burn on what is locally known as Moss Road. They are situated close to the Bridgend Farm. The bridge to the South of Bridgend Farm is named C3/020 "South Bridgend Bridge" and the bridge to the North is named C3/030 "Bridgend Bridge" (Grid Reference - E287129 N686797). The structures are intact but show signs of cracking and have a deformed arch, both appear to have differential settlement between their abutments. The works will involve the demolition of the existing bridges; the construction of piles to support the foundations; a "precast Flexi-arch" will form the intrados of the barrel; precast spandrel units that will be clad in stone recovered from the demolition; mass concrete infill to the arch precast formers of the bridge and the reconstruction of the road surfacing. The precast modular "Flexi-arches" and associated precast footings and spandrel walls will be purchased prior to the start of the contract, delivered to site by the manufacturer and erected by the Contractor. The bridge provides vehicular access across the Pow Burn and is on the boundary between Stirling and Falkirk Councils. It is proposed to close the road at each bridge to all pedestrian and vehicular traffic for the duration of the works. However to avoid major inconvenience to local residents, access to Bridgend farm and Letham Moss works must be maintained at all times. Refer to section 4 of the works information. The Contractor should take this into account when planning the works. The traffic diversion around the site will be established and maintained by the contractor. Associated works include, but are not limited to, the following: earthworks, demolition; roads surfacing; road markings, signing; temporary fencing; structural piles; the erection of precast units and placing of in situ concrete; new parapet prior to forming a new road over the bridge. The contract will incorporate a 1-year maintenance period. The Works will be carried out under the terms and conditions of the NEC3 Engineering and Construction Short Contract Second Edition, published June 2005 with Amendments September 2011 issued by the Institution of Civil Engineers. All works will also be in accordance with the Manual of Contract Documents for Highway Works, in particular Volume 1 Specification for Highway Works published by the Department of Transport.
