Miller /Brennan has been awarded the contract to manage construction of the Bradford Bypass expressway.

The project is one of two highway projects the Progressive Conservatives put at the heart of their 2022 re-election bid.

The engineers who manage key parts of the design and construction are withdrawing their service.
