The Short, Short List: Kent down to three for Kent Highway Services' core maintenance contract
Kent County Council Cabinet member for Highways, Nick Chard, has announced the 3 companies to make the final shortlist for the Kent highway Services "Term Maintenance Contract". The final three are:
- Colas
- Enterprise
- May Gurney
County Councillor Tim Prater commented:
"The shortlisting and announcement process is nothing if not extended - the X-Factor should take notes!
"I hope the final contract will deliver value to Kent but I have my doubts: I'd far prefer a totally flexible system looking to use small and medium sized local contractors for the majority of jobs. I bet we could get cheaper repairs, with more money returned to local businesses and a bit more local pride!"
