Arcadis, Mace and WSP are among the firms appointed to a new 拢420m Highways England framework for commercial and project management services.

Others to win spots on the six-year deal include Aecom, Arup, Mott MacDonald and Jacobs.

It will be used for support services jobs by all parts of Highways England, along with wider government and transport research bodies.

Lot 1 of the two-lot framework will cover commercial management services, including quantity surveying and estimating services, while Lot 2 will include project management commissions, including risk management and planning services.

Arcadis鈥檚 regional sector lead for its highways arm, Leigh Jones, said the firm鈥檚 appointment to both lots would help it 鈥減osition ourselves as a major provider鈥� of commercial and project management services to Highways England.

In February, Jacobs landed a 拢160m project management role on Highways England鈥檚 拢6.8bn Lower Thames Crossing scheme.
