PARTNERSHIP APPROACH WINS RECOGNITION

The largest transport project completed in Scotland for a generation, the 8km stretch of motorway south of Glasgow opened to traffic in June last year, eight months ahead of schedule.

The company worked on the project as a member of Interlink M74, a joint venture with Morgan Sindall, Balfour Beatty and Morrison Construction.

The judging panel said the project “stood out because of its scale, importance and the way the clients and providers worked together to deliver such a complex, and at times, controversial project in an exemplary fashion”. The judges also noted that: “The project delivered benefits for the wider community and local employment for the area.”
