Taylor Woodrow Retains Highways Agency Facilities Management Contract

The Highways Agency has extended its facilities management contract with Taylor Woodrow Facilities Management (part of VINCI Facilities) until 2011.

The contract, valued at £3.4 million per annum commenced in 2005 for the provision of FM services at seven Regional Control Centres and 32 Traffic Officers’ outstations.
The buildings incorporate IT and communication equipment in ‘state of the art’ video control rooms for the Highways Agency and the police. These facilities are appropriately placed to cover the strategic road network. They are operational 24 hours a day, enabling the Highways Agency to effectively manage the network and minimise congestion.

Taylor Woodrow’s innovation and commercial control has resulted in annual savings of around £140k. These achievements lead to the Highways Agency increasing the scope of services Taylor Woodrow provide to include the procurement and stock management of consumables and equipment for the Highways Agency’s Traffic Officer Service vehicle fleet.
