Lagan Operations & Maintenance Limited has won the MMaRC Network C contract from the National Roads Authority. The contract is the Motorway Maintenance and Renewals Contract and is one of three new Network Asset Management type roads maintenance contracts in Ireland issued by the National Roads Authority.
The project comprises the routine operation and maintenance of 330Kms of Motorway and National road network and includes the normal inspections, environmental maintenance, incident response, and winter maintenance core activities together with full liaison with the local authorities and the Motorway Management Traffic Control Centre. In addition repair works and discreet renewals schemes can be instructed through the contract by the National Roads Authority.
A five year term contract with an option to extend for a further 2 years provides a secure project and enhances the O&M portfolio of the Lagan Operations & Maintenance Limited.
The project is undertaken as a Joint Venture with Egis, a company with French headquarters but also with Irish based operations, and one that operates globally in the sector. A dedicated joint venture company, Egis Lagan Services Limited has been established by Lagan and Egis to perform the project.
MMaRC: Network C
Network C comprises the M7 from Kildare to Portlaoise PPP Scheme, the M8 from south of the Portlaoise PPP Scheme to the Lagan Operated Fermoy PPP scheme, and the M8 from south of the Fermoy PPP scheme to the Dunkettle interchange in Cork, the N20, N22, N25 and N40 in the Cork City environs, a spur of the N24 in Tipperary, and the M9 motorway from Kilcullen to Waterford with a small section of the N10 to Kilkenny.
Operations will be run from four depots located along the route at Dunkettle in Cork, Cahir in Tipperaray, Portlaoise and Kilkenny. Each depot will be sufficiently equipped with enough staff, vehicles, kit, equipment and materials to operate its specific section of the network and provide interaction with adjacent sections and stakeholders.
The Project will undergo an initial stage of project mobilisation and then move into full operations in late summer 2013. Mobilisation commenced in Mid-May and is progressing well.
