6 Nov 12 FM Conway has been awarded a £2m contract to carry out highway surfacing works for the London Borough of Wandsworth.

The contract comprises both carriageway resurfacing and carriageway bases, along with ancillary works. It runs from October 2012 to September 2013. FM Conway previously had just the carriageway bases contract during 2011

FM Conway will deliver a range of highways improvement works including planing, resurfacing and patching existing carriageways within the borough and installing traffic calming measures, including humps, cushions and entry treatments. The company will also deliver all associated ancillary works, such as footway resurfacing, repair and installation of drainage and kerbing, and all lining works.

FM Conway intends to use its Enviro range of asphalt base and binder products to help Wandsworth Council to increase its sustainability record. The Enviro range is manufactured at FM Conway’s Erith-based asphalt plant and incorporates a high percentage of recycled materials. These products reduce the embodied carbon compared to primary aggregates by at least 15%, the contractor claims.
