National Highways Fines for Late Completion of Roadworks
Dear Department for Transport,
I write to you under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 to request information as to the amount of money (if any) the Department for Transport fined National Highways for the late completion of the Marks Tey to Stanway resurfacing project in Essex.
The project was estimated to finish between late 2023 and early 2024 but was only completed in October 2024.
I write to request the following information:
- Was National Highways fined for completing the Marks Tey to Stanway resurfacing scheme late
- If so, what was the amount of the fine and why specifically was it imposed
- What is the threshold for the DfT fining National Highways
- Which projects have National Highways been fined for so far in 2024
- What is the total amount of money National Highways has been fined for in 2024
- If no fine has been issued, is a fine being considered for National Highways after the Marks Tey to Stanway scheme was delivered late and overbudget
Yours faithfully,
Daniel Rees
