SSI Flood Recovery - Sylvan bridge replacement
Tender ID: 566548
Tender Details
Tender Description
Lake Sylvan bridge (Mt Aspiring National Park) was located 25 min drive from Glenorchy. This bridge was located near a popular camp site, providing access to a range of tracks in the area, including the Lake Sylvan loop track. Sylvan bridge was damaged in the 2020 flood event, and temporary repairs kept this bridge operational until September 2023. However, in September 2023, the bridge was lost in another large flood event, which led to the structure’s removal. The purpose of this procurement is to source a construction contractor to build a replacement Sylvan bridge in a new, more resilient location (500m upstream from the original bridge).
The scope of works includes:
1) Supply and construction of the 52.9 m span Sylvan suspension bridge (as per approved design and specifications)’; and
2) All associated establishment, disestablishment, and other works necessary to complete the bridge construction works (to the agreed design and specification).
