City of York Council terminated the Germany Beck flood-alleviation procurement on 30 September 2026 after two deadline extensions. The buyer cites time and funding constraints, additional clarification information and market feedback. The later UK12 notice supersedes the earlier tender dates.

The latest notice terminates the competition

The complete official history records May planning, the August tender, two August corrections and September termination notice 092372-2026. The termination release contains the buyer's reasons in awards[0].statusDetails. November 2025 ward minutes describe the wider pumping scheme and its interfaces. Those minutes provide historical engineering context; complete 2026 tender documents and a replacement procurement have not been obtained.

Funding and clarification altered the procurement path

The published sequence moves from an original 10 September deadline to 24 September and then 8 October, before termination on 30 September. Reading only the compiled deadline would miss the later decision ending participation. The buyer's reasons show why early project demand, funding conditions and procurement changes need tracking together. For suppliers, this history identifies a stopped competition while preserving the wider drainage problem and avoiding an assumption that a new bidding window exists.

Evidence conclusion

A replacement process needs its own notice

Participation is cancelled for this competition, and the previous submission dates remain historical. The 2025 council minutes describe offline pumping, a wet well, an A19 culvert and road, ecology and archaeology interfaces associated with hydraulic locking. They establish the wider scheme's reported context rather than final tender geometry or current construction requirements. A replacement notice, confirmed funding and issued technical scope would establish a new preparation basis; the reviewed history leaves these points unresolved.

Outstanding evidence

  • Replacement procurement or an explicit restart statement
  • Confirmed funding and renewed programme
  • Issued pumping, culvert and work-package specifications
  • Current road, ecology and archaeology conditions
  • Selected supplier and contract requirements
