Galliford Try has been awarded phase two of Grantham Southern Relief Road by Lincolnshire County Council. The 拢19m project will join the B1174 to the A1 via a grade separated junction.
Additionally, Leicestershire County Council has awarded the company a 拢7m contract to carry out improvements to the A46 and A5630 at Anstey to increase capacity for a new housing and industrial development in the northwest of Leicester.
These contract awards come hard on the heels of Highways England confirming Galliford Try for the 拢300m A47 corridor improvement programme around Norwich and Peterborough and the 拢135m Sparkford to Ilchester dualling scheme along the A303 corridor in Somerset.

It takes Galliford Try鈥檚 highway haul for the week to 拢461m.
Chief executive Graham Prothero said: "The highways sector is a key strategic focus for our construction business as set out in our recent results, and we are delighted to have secured this high-quality pipeline of work. We have a strong working relationship with Highways England and the county councils involved and we look forward to delivering these much-needed infrastructure improvements alongside them."
