Graham awarded A320 Woking infrastructure scheme

Surrey County Council has awarded contractor Graham the contract to deliver improvements to the A320 north of Woking, unlocking future housing developments across Runnymede.

Funded through Homes England’s Housing Infrastructure Fund, the scheme will increase capacity and improve traffic flow between Chertsey and Ottershaw, with major upgrades to four key junctions and two road connections. The project will introduce significant safety and accessibility enhancements, including wider footpaths and cycleways, enhanced pedestrian crossing points and better access to public transport.

The contract has been awarded under the GEN 5 Southern Highways and Civils Framework.

Gareth McLaverty, Project Director at Graham said, "Graham is delighted to be delivering this transformative scheme on behalf of Surrey County Council and Runnymede Borough Council. The A320 North of Woking project is a vital infrastructure investment that will not only improve safety and traffic flow but also unlock thousands of much-needed new homes in the region.

Natalie Bramhall, Surrey County Council Cabinet Member for Property, Waste and Infrastructure' added, “Those who drive on the A320 regularly will appreciate how busy this road is and how vital these improvements are to residents and businesses right along this key route. I am really pleased we have secured this contract with Graham, and we can begin to deliver this long-awaited scheme.”
