The day is also set to provide details of the subcontract packages to be procured in 2009/10 including:

• Pavements
• Geotechnics
• Traffic Management

The Connect Plus consortium of Atkins, Balfour Beatty, Egis Projects and Skanska maintain the motorway, and widen it to a fourth lane on some sections, over the next 30 years.

The deal reached financial close last month.
