Purpose

This to enable the delivery of Streets for
People and Highway programme and to avoid the possible clash with a
new contractor having to be mobilised before council election in
May 2026. Giving time for a full review of the contracts and
allowing for the procurement process.

Decision

The Cabinet Member for Clean Air,
Streets and Waste approved the variation
of the Southwark Highways Works Contract with FM Conway Ltd (Lot A
– Reactive maintenance and small scale reactive repair works)
(Lot B – Planned improvement or renewal works to our
highways), for an additional one year period from 1 April 2026 at
an estimated total cost of £12,000,000 (£2.45m for Lot
A and £9.55m for Lot B) in order to deliver highways works to
support the delivery of highway improvements as part of Lots A and
B of the Southwark Highways Works Contract 2020-26.
