Kier Secure Surrey CC Highways Contract

Kier Highways has secured another 12-month contract worth  about £40 million to continue to provide highways maintenance works to Surrey County Council.

The contract started in 2011. In 2017, Kier secured a four-year extension which will run until April 2021, which is when the new 12-month contract will commence.

The scope of work will include highways maintenance and improvements, along with the continuation of the S-Skills academy which was launched as part of the contract in 2017. S-Skills for Highways is a 16-week programme operated in conjunction with Surrey County Council, which gives vulnerable young people and adults the opportunity to learn the basics of highways works, which in turn will help them improve their chances of employment.

Joe Incutti, acting Group Managing Director at Kier Highways, said: “We are very proud to have been working with Surrey County Council for nearly 10 years delivering highways maintenance and improvements, and particularly proud to have had the opportunity to make a positive social value contribution which will benefit residents and communities in Surrey for many years to come.

“This contract award is further recognition of the long-term collaborative relationship that has been built between Kier’s extraordinary Surrey Highways team, and Surrey County Council. We are delighted to have been given the opportunity to continue our relationship with Surrey County Council and look forward to continue making a positive contribution in the future.”
