Amey delivers engineering design and operational delivery services for Scotland’s South West Trunk Roads Network on behalf of Transport Scotland. It is our responsibility to maintain the trunk road infrastructure to support the economic growth and development of the area. These services include the design and delivery of major road and bridge maintenance work, as well as inspections to ensure the routes remain safe and well-maintained. We also provide winter maintenance, which includes carrying out salting and snow clearing during the colder months, as well as gully cleaning and the repair of motorway lighting and traffic signals. Our incident response teams are always on hand as the first point of contact for our customers, who may run into problems while travelling on the network. The teams look after our customers’ safety and get people moving again as quickly as possible. The South West contract covers nearly 400 miles of road with our teams responsible for the safe maintenance and repair of over 1,600 structures from Glasgow to Dumfries and through to Ayr and Stranraer.
