Aggregate Industries has won a £47 million road repair and maintenance contract across 3,000 miles of Leicester and Leicestershire roads. The five year deal will see the Leicestershire-based aggregates and building materials giant carry out vital work including digging up and levelling roads, shifting waste and laying and compacting new asphalt.
The deal with Leicestershire County Council and Leicester City Council will also include pothole repairs and carriageway patching, and will run from next month to July 2024 – with an option to extend the contract by up to four years.
Materials and delivery of the work will be supported by the company’s Leicestershire plants at Bardon Hill and Croft.
