Bridgwater Tidal Barrier - Construction Continuation Contract

This is a £125M construction continuation contract for the Bridgwater Tidal Barrier's second stage, awarded to Kier Group for ongoing works on a major UK infrastructure project. The opportunity is effectively closed as it represents a direct award to an existing contractor (Kier) to continue work under a previously established framework agreement, making it unavailable for SME competition. This tender type indicates a pre-qualified supplier arrangement where the contract has already been allocated to the incumbent contractor.
