Overview

The site of the Te Reinga Bridge is located approximately 80m downriver from the confluence of the Ruakituri and Hangaroa rivers and approximately 100m upriver of the Te Reinga Falls. The bridge provides access to Te Reinga, a small rural community located 10km northeast of Wairoa in Hawkes Bay. During the 2023 Cyclone Gabrielle, the central pier of the bridge (Pier C) washed away, causing the structure to become unstable and forcing closure of the bridge to vehicles and pedestrians. The bridge has since been demolished and there is currently a temporary bridge in place.
An Expression of Interest (EOI) for the Te Reinga Bridge Replacement project was released on 17 May 2024 that invited submissions from suitably experienced contractors interested in being prospective tenderers for the construction of the replacement Te Reinga Bridge.
The EOI process identified several Contractors who met the minimum pre-qualification requirements. This Request For Proposal (RFP) is the next phase of the procurement process which involves short-listing two tenderers who will participate in a collaborative Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) phase with the Principal’s Technical Design Team before submitting a tender for the Contract Works.
At the conclusion of the ECI phase, more detailed and specific attribute and pricing information will be requested through a separate Request for Tender (RFT) for the physical works contract. As outlined above, the two shortlisted tenderers will be required to participate in a collaborative ECI phase which will run concurrently with the tender period.
The Principal wishes to engage suitably qualified and experience contractors to take part in the construction of a resilient bridge that will permanently reconnect the local Te Reinga community and have a positive impact on the surrounding Wairoa district, and wider Hawkes Bay and Gisborne regions.
The project is being delivered through a traditional contract model (NZS3910:2013) with a collaborative ECI stage that will run concurrently with the detailed design of the bridge. The ECI phase will give two selected Contractors the chance to influence the design and provide opportunities for collaboration and innovative solutions to construction. The project is also focused on fostering and enhancing relationships with local Hapu, upskilling the local suppliers, and supporting the local community to build back stronger.
