On the 1 July 2017 the Highways England South West Maintenance and Response (HESW M&R) contract went live and brought together the two previously separate operational areas, 1 and 2, into a single Southwest Region. A journey to collaboration was needed if both Highways England’s and Ringway’s objectives, outcomes and imperatives were to be met.
