Bromley Council has awarded three new highway maintenance contracts to FM Conway, with a combined estimated value of £106 million, running for six years from 1 July 2026.They carry the option of two further two-year extensions, which could keep the arrangement in place until 2036, says Bromley Online.
The award marks FM Conway’s return to the borough for the first time since 2018; the council describes it as renewing the company’s long-standing connection to Bromley, which is London’s biggest borough by area.
Councillor Simon Fawthrop, Executive Councillor for Transport and Highways, said:
“Delivering the range of high-quality highway related services we need for London’s largest borough is demanding given we also have more miles of road than other boroughs as well. Residents and motorists rightly expect high performance from our contractors, including in fixing potholes and the like and we welcome FM Conway’s commitment and look forward to working closely with them in the coming months and years.”
Matt Smith, FM Conway Managing Director for Term Maintenance, commented:
“We are very pleased to be returning to the London Borough of Bromley. This is a borough we know well, and one that is home to many of our people, so this award carries real meaning for our teams. Bromley has a large and varied network that plays a vital role in supporting residents, businesses and local communities. We look forward to renewing our partnership with the council and delivering a high-quality service that is focused on the needs of the borough.”
Major works include planned maintenance of carriageways and footways, urban regeneration projects, traffic schemes, drainage installation and the routine and reactive maintenance of street lighting assets. Minor works cover routine, reactive and emergency maintenance across the borough’s highway assets, together with winter service, patching programmes and traffic management support. Highway drainage cleaning will deliver proactive and reactive maintenance of Bromley’s drainage system, including gullies, soakaways, manholes and drainage channels.
