About

Highways England awarded a contract to Atkins for regular data analysis to determine if the expected benefits of operating 60mph speed limits in roadworks are being realised in line with the expected safety tolerance.

This follows the success of 60mph speed trials and Highways England's aspiration to use a 60mph speed limit more often and in more circumstances on major motorway roadworks.

The contract value is £199,966.3.
