They will deliver renewal work on much of the infrastructure that the Transport for London Road Network (TLRN) depends on, including bridges, road tunnels and river assets.
The work on the contracts also includes construction of enhancements of highways infrastructure, as well as the delivery of early input, design and construction work through the framework.
The contractors will also support the delivery of new schemes to boost walking and cycling across the Transport for London Road Network (TLRN), as well as the future projects to expand London’s growing network of high-quality Cycleways.

Additionally, this framework will run for six years from April until March 2027 for use by TfL, London Boroughs and other authorities whose developments impact the TfL road network.
TfL Project and Programme Delivery director Nick Fairholme said: “This new contract framework will help us to deliver further vital walking and cycling schemes across London, and ensure that these important infrastructure assets on our road network are safe and well maintained for years to come.”
