Marlborough awarded Highway Maintenance Contract via London Construction Programme (LCP)

  • By Marlborough Highways

Civil engineering and infrastructure services company Marlborough Highways has been awarded a five-year contract for the provision of Highway Maintenance and Minor Improvement Works for the London Borough of Haringey through the LCP Major Works Framework.

The contract is due to start in July 2020. The contract will run for five years and have the option to extend for a further 2 years. With a value of around £56 million. The work will cover all aspects of highway infrastructure. Including; carriageway, footway and cycleway maintenance as well as new build highway projects which include junction improvements, traffic calming measures, gully, drainage works and sustainable drainage systems (SuDS). Marlborough will also provide emergency 24/7 response for the duration of the Contract.

Marlborough was awarded Haringey’s 4-year Street Lighting and Minor Improvement Works Contract last year which began in October. This included maintenance work as well as reactive and ad-hoc capital work providing essential upgrades and maintenance for the Borough to help improve public safety.

Matthew Revell, Managing Director at Marlborough Highways commented “We have been working really well with Haringey on the Street Lighting Contract. We are now thrilled to have now also been awarded their Highway Maintenance Contract. We look forward to developing the relationship with Haringey further, providing a consolidated service between the two Contracts.”

Marlborough is fully committed to helping Haringey’s community through the Tottenham Charter and the Borough Plan. This involves employing locally, providing highway maintenance skills training for the unemployed as well as engaging with schools and volunteer groups within the local community. In addition to this, Marlborough will help apprentices that are on low incomes with childcare support to help them improve the career prospects.

Working as ‘one team’, Haringey can rely on Marlborough for their expertise and experience across all areas of the business: surfacing, highway maintenance, road marking, street lighting, infrastructure and traffic management. Marlborough will start to build upon their existing Haringey team to ensure they have the right mix of industry and technical expertise, practical knowledge and leadership skills for the new Highway Maintenance Contract.

“One of the things I value most is their very collaborative and transparent team culture. It makes a big difference to have a contractor that wants to work closely with us and is supportive and responsive. With Marlborough, I get a team who are attentive, work collaboratively and honestly with me and don’t lose focus on delivering first class communications and compliance.”
Carly Norris, Project Manager Operations, Hackney Council
“From the design stage, Marlborough has been fundamental in delivering the Broad Lane Square improvements scheme. During the works, not only did the team manage to keep to the programme, but they went the extra mile to ensure attention to detail and came up with innovative solutions to address issues encountered on site. My thanks on behalf of Haringey goes out to Marlborough for their dedication to deliver.”
Dana Rasheed, Project Manager, Haringey Council
“Working alongside our Term Service Contractor Marlborough Highways, we successfully completed renovations to the Crowstone Footbridge. The designs were provided by Marlborough, and the work was unique. The scheme was completed to budget and ahead of its programme duration.”
Neil Handley, Senior Engineer, Southend-on-Sea City Council
“I would like to thank you and your team for your efforts, the Marlborough crews were professional, courteous, and hard working all day and ensured the event went without a hitch. You and the team were a credit to the company, demonstrating commitment and support to the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham.”
Nick Davies, Specialist Services Manager, Barking and Dagenham Council
“I just wanted to say what a pleasure it has been to work with Marlborough Highways over the last six months. The quality of work is superb, and there has been some excellent collaboration between Milestone and Marlborough to complete, what at times, has been quite a challenging scheme. I hope to work with Marlborough on another project in the near future.”
Colin Hill, Schemes Manager, Milestone Infrastructure
“Marlborough worked with us in constructing a 1.3km cycle track. There were a number of technical difficulties to overcome, and their gifted foreman worked to propose some innovative solutions to the challenges we faced. The result is a facility that the locals are proud of, providing walkers and cyclists with alternative access to the hospital and nearby school. The scheme was a lot of hard work, but well worth it.”
Rob Venables, NEC Project Manager, Essex County Council
“Marlborough attracts people who take care and have pride in their work. Several gangs of Operatives worked tirelessly for six months to reconstruct drainage networks, lay more than 3km of high quality bespoke granite kerbs and granite channels blocks to ensure positive drainage. The technical compliance, attention to detail and level of quality finish along the entire carriageway was exceptional”.
Mark Chiverrell, Technical Director, Project Centre
“We saw huge benefits in appointing Marlborough as our full service contractor and we’re impressed – they’ve delivered consistent high quality service and superior quality control across every project. Marlborough, provide us with a ‘one-stop’ shop solution – we get the same quality of service and better control across all aspects of the project.”
Darren Bryant, Principal Engineer, Enfield Council
