Caroline Ferguson, Fusion JV
"The M23 smart motorway started its journey in 2018 and enlisted the help of professional contractors who shared the strategy behind leading the industry in delivering a first class service not only for our client but for our customers also. We needed likeminded contractors who would become part of the SMP family and be open to new and innovative ideas whilst working alongside us to deliver 17km of new road. Lynch have worked tirelessly to provide a service that is top class and not only that but have been instrumental in providing training and support for all our staff regardless of parent company. The Thumbs up training they undertook on site, has been contributory in making our site and works safe for all to use with a confidence that safety is paramount.
We would like to thank Lynch for all their efforts and for embracing our work ethics and culture and working with us to ensure a safe and collaborated project on the M23."
