This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in modular construction solutions, particularly those focused on bridging systems. Companies that have experience with temporary structures, civil engineering, and environmental projects would be particularly well-suited to compete for similar contracts. The versatility and technical specifications required for this procurement may encourage collaboration and innovation, further promoting growth in the sector.

## Notice

Forestry and Land Scotland (FLS) own a number of temporary bridges used to access forest blocks where permanent bridge construction is not suitable or justified. Sites may have restricted access which makes the use of cranes for bridge construction difficult or impossible therefore FLS' stock of temporary bridges consists of modular bridging systems. Modular bridging systems consist of a number of 'bays' measuring approximately 3m each. Any number of bays can be joined together to create the span of bridge you require. Modular bridges are a versatile solution, allowing for the construction of temporary bridges to any required span and load requirements and is therefore suited to a wide range of applications such as harvesting operations, emergency bridge replacement, construction access or other works
