Commenting on the successful evening, Street Works UK Chairman, Clive Bairsto CBE, says, ‘It was truly fantastic to celebrate the companies, projects and individuals that are championing the nation’s priorities by delivering the infrastructure of tomorrow. Street Works UK members are at the forefront of helping the UK meet its ambitious growth targets, and I am proud to represent such an outstanding group. What we do is so often expected by people, a good job, to the right timescales with no fuss, that it can be forgotten about. The Awards is therefore our opportunity to recognise, reflect and remember the contribution of all the delivering our future.’
