UNSPSC 95121601: Steel bridge

A structure that spans a body of water that is made predominantly of steel

UNSPSC 95121601 Steel bridge is a Commodity code capturing the replacement, rehabilitation, and reconstruction of bridge structures across state and local jurisdictions. State and local governments procure under this code by issuing competitive sealed bids for removal and replacement of existing bridges, construction of new bridge superstructures and substructures, and associated approach-work, roadway tie-ins, drainage improvements, and site restoration. The solicitations show a mix of pedestrian bridge replacements, vehicular bridge reconstruction over rivers and waterways, and railing retrofits on existing structures. Issuing bodies span county governments (Summit County, Utah; Perry County, Mississippi; Pinellas County, Florida; Hillsborough County, Florida), cities (Waco, Texas; Jackson, Mississippi; Charlotte, North Carolina; Dallas, Texas; Tallahassee, Florida; Arlington, Texas; Marietta, Georgia; Palm Bay, Florida), state departments of transportation (Georgia DOT), special-purpose districts (Orange County, Florida; Escambia County, Florida), and regional authorities (Jekyll Island State Park Authority; University of Texas at San Antonio). No single issuer dominates; activity is geographically distributed across county and municipal engineering and transportation departments.

Recent solicitations show concrete intensity and scale. Summit County, Utah is replacing two pedestrian bridges at McLeod Creek via competitive sealed bid with mandatory pre-bid July 22, 2026 and bids due August 5, 2026 (Solicitation PCMC27006ENG). Pinellas County, Florida is replacing the 120-foot Ridgemoor Boulevard Bridge over Brooker Creek with a 135-foot prestressed concrete structure under a two-step qualification process, Step One qualifications due July 7, 2026 and Step Two bids July 28, 2026, with an estimated contract value of $7.616 million (ITB-C 26-0506). The City of Waco and TxDOT are reconstructing the Speegleville Bridge Over Middle Bosque—a 0.54-mile, two-bridge project with an engineering estimate of $17.3 million—with bids due July 29, 2026 (RFB 2026-023). Hillsborough County, Florida is replacing two bridges along Port Sutton Road with an estimated value of $8,349,237.09 and bids due June 30, 2026 (IFB-26-00246). Geographic activity concentrates in Florida (multiple Orange County, Pinellas County, Escambia County, Hillsborough County, and Volusia County projects), Georgia (Bulloch County, Marietta, Jekyll Island Authority, DeKalb County), Texas (Waco, Williamson County, Denton County, Dallas), Mississippi (Perry County, Hinds County, Jones County), and the Mid-Atlantic and Pacific Northwest (Washington County, Oregon; Marion County, Oregon; Montgomery County, Pennsylvania; District of Columbia). Contract values range from $110,000 for a railing retrofit (Washington County, Oregon ITB 2026.060-ITB 116198, bids due July 29, 2026) to $17.3 million for the Speegleville project. Bid notice types are predominantly IFB and sealed-bid formats with mandatory or non-mandatory pre-bid meetings, 30-90 day response windows, and Davis-Bacon Act prevailing wage compliance on federally funded projects. This code sees consistent activity and represents near-term pursuit opportunity for firms with bridge construction capacity, FDOT or state DOT prequalification, and bonding capability.
