Civil engineering company Britcon has completed a £950,000 road repair contract for East Riding of Yorkshire Council.

The contract, awarded under the YORcivil2 framework on coastal highway from Bridlington to Withernsea, involved road surfacing and repairs in areas such as Market Place, Bull Ring Roundabout, Tesco's Roundabout in Hornsea and Queensgate Square in Bridlington.

Britcon, working with its partner and sister company Specialist Surfacing, completed the planning and resurfacing works, and in some cases reconstruction of road surfaces, as part of the twilight contract.

Paul Clarkson, managing director at Britcon, said: "This is a fairly intensive project given that we had to complete the upgrades overnight in just five months. The brief was much more complex than simple resurfacing and includes major repairs and reconstruction in some challenging areas.

"By definition, the nature of this civils work affects residents, motorists, pedestrians, cyclists and businesses and as such our collaboration with all of these stakeholders was critical throughout the process. The Britcon and Specialist Surfacing teams are extremely well experienced in managing delivery expectation against public interest."

Britcon has previously completed the £1.2m installation of a new scheme to ease traffic flows at Swinemoor Lane in Beverley.
