2022 is a year of opportunity for all those working in the roads maintenance sphere. Many projects, both local and national will open for tender and others will continue in their development journey.We still live in turbulent times. The pandemic is not yet behind us and as such economic uncertainty remains. This is exacerbated by price volatility, material availability and logistics challenges. At the same time, we continue to manage the impact of Brexit and seek global consensus on addressing the climate emergency.This means that we must all strive to reinforce our resilience and work collaboratively with our partners and clients to deliver the most efficient and innovative projects ever seen.All roads and highways maintenance projects in 2022 must follow the principles of the Construction Playbook, the Government's proposals for procurement reform, and take into account the findings of the Independent Review of Construction Frameworks launched by the Cabinet Office. Combined, these legislative and policy developments will go a long way in delivering projects with strong social value, while at the same time giving contractors and clients the freedom to build fantastic local and national infrastructure, improving how we live and work. |
