Colas is one of the first companies to seize the opportunity to join the prestigious Association of Directors of Environment, Economy, Planning and Transport (ADEPT) following the recent introduction of their new Corporate ADEPT Members Scheme.

Carl Fergusson, Colas Executive Director of Strategy and Development, said: “We are delighted that ADEPT has widened its membership to include corporate members.

Simon Neilson, 1^st Vice President of ADEPT said: “Welcoming Colas as a new Corporate Member is an important step for ADEPT. Our corporate partners are increasingly delivery partners, working closely with members to improve our networks, infrastructure and environment.”
