About

Norfolk County Council is seeking a supplier for maintenance and operation services for the Herring and Haven twin‑leaf lifting bridges in the port town of Great Yarmouth. The council is responsible for the maintenance of the Haven Bridge and for the maintenance and operation of the Herring Bridge; the Haven Bridge is operated by Peel Ports on behalf of Great Yarmouth Port Authority, which has a statutory obligation to operate the bridge for navigation. Recent written statements (November–December 2025) note received proposals for unitary local government in Norfolk and the government’s intent to establish a Mayoral Strategic Authority for Norfolk and Suffolk; should those processes proceed the contract may be transferred, assigned or novated to successor authority(ies) or a Mayoral Strategic Authority, and the council or a successor may order services on behalf of other local authorities within Norfolk’s current boundaries.
