John Sisk & Son has been confirmed as replacement contractor to oversee the completion of the £15m Manchester-Salford Inner Relief Road.
Since civils contractor Dawnus collapsed Manchester highways maintenance staff have been doing work laying kerbs and surfacing pavements to ensure the site was ready for the new main contractor to get underway.
Sisk will start to mobilise on site this week to resuming full work as soon as possible on the Regent Road works.
Sir Richard Leese, Leader of Manchester City Council, said: “This has been a challenging situation but I am glad that it has been resolved so quickly and that this vital work is now getting back on track.
“We recognise that it’s been frustrating for motorists during this brief period of uncertainty but despite the complexities involved, the good news is that we’ve only lost a short amount of time and do not anticipate significant delay, if any, to the original project timetable.”
Administrators were called in at Swansea-based Dawnus just over two weeks ago.
Since then Welsh civil engineering contractor Griffiths has also secured a former project to re-start work on the stalled £12m transformation of a key Swansea city centre route.
