- W617778137 abstract "This article examines the latest contract for Manchester's outer ring road, the M60 motorway; it includes a route map. This road scheme is the first of a group of proposed 'best practice' Egan demonstration projects by the UK Highways Agency (HA). The essentials of such a project are partnering, design and build, and a simple tendering exercise focusing on quality rather than price. These ingredients make the project management confident of completing this project on time, and within cost limits. An agreed solution is discussed, with all participants wanting to make it succeed. The HA let four contracts to fill the 17km eastern gap in the planned 56km route of the M60 round Manchester. The first three, bid at a total #168M cost, have so far accumulated #50M of agreed claims, which could rise to at least #70M, and on average run a year late. The fourth and final contract, for a 9km link, was awarded to Balfour Beatty in May 1998, and is run on the new system, and seems to not be running over budget, although all four contracts have had to cope with the same problematic ground conditions, including wet weather during earthwork construction and underground peat layers. Many of the engineering structure designs were changed, leaving the contractor with seven overbridges to build, with five having no bearings or joints." @default.
