Industry Briefng and networking session for road and bridges food-restoration works

The size and scope of the project means the successful managing contractor will need the assistance of many local contractors and suppliers,” Brendan said.

Local businesses and experienced organisations are invited to attend an industry briefng and networking session, hosted by Lismore City Council as part of the selection process to appoint a Managing Contractor to deliver food-restoration works on our roads and bridges.

The February 2022 natural disaster caused signifcant damage across Lismore’s extensive road network.

Lismore City Council’s Chief Operating Offcer, Brendan Logan, said the Industry Briefng on Monday, 15 May, was a milestone in Lismore’s recovery.

“Over the last 14 months, Council has undertaken extensive emergency road works to re-establish our road networks. We are now at the next crucial stage of the rebuild,” he said.

“The major damages to our roads and bridges have been investigated, and a concept scope of works has been submitted to Transport for NSW. This next phase requires detailed design, specialist contractors and project management expertise to deliver an unprecedented volume of work”.

“The briefng is also an opportunity for our local suppliers to form relationships with some of the industry’s most experienced companies.

The briefng will explain how the selection process works for the Roads and Bridges Recovery Program. While attendance is not mandatory to submit a tender, it is encouraged, as important information will be shared about the project before the tender is advertised.

Following the briefng, attendees will enjoy light refreshments and networking opportunities. This is an excellent opportunity for local suppliers to connect with potential clients and participate in a project that could have signifcant benefts for their business.

The event will take place on Monday, 15 May, at 10am at Southern Cross University, Lismore.
