Description of the goods or services required

Newport City Council are issuing this speculative notice to understand the market/interested companies to tender for the preparation and painting of Newport City Footbridge.

The contract will require roped access specialists with a knowledge of rust treatment and paintwork to the metal surfaces of the bridge with brush or roller. Whilst the bridge has been cleaned this year it is expected that a light jet wash of the painted areas will be needed before the surfaces can be painted once again.

The site work will start in March / April 2025 and be completed within 2 months.

A paint inspection has been carried out in 2024.

The contractor will need to supply appropriate paints, treatments and be responsible for their own Health & Safety and safety of the public nearby. The bridge can be closed from 09:30 until 15:30 weekdays only. Weekend closures are not possible.

Traffic Management will be supplied by Newport City Council TM contractors.

All interested parties are invited to register their interest through eTender Wales and a site visit with NCC Engineers can be arranged at an early stage.
