MARLBOROUGH HIGHWAYS Our History 1992 Marlborough was founded in 1992 by John Woolf, our chairman, who wanted to provide more personal client relationships and better customer care. 2001 In 2001, McDonald was formed to provide street lighting and highways maintenance services across Essex. Over the following two decades the Marlborough and McDonald businesses worked tirelessly to build capabilities and offer complete in-house service. 2007 By 2007, our workforce had increased ten-fold, we had pioneered inhouse training and won our first Investors in People Award. 2008 In 2008, we secured a £10.5 million contract for infrastructure work in East London and a few years later became Essex County Councils biggest tier 1 supply chain partner. 2013 In 2013, Marlborough and McDonalds aligned their business processes to provide integrated expertise and in 2015 consolidated to become Marlborough McDonald. 2015-2017 Between 2015-2017 we won £70 million contract with Southend-on-Sea and re-won all our original term contracts. We also secured a number of new long-term contracts in London and the South. 2018 We opened our brand-new headquarters in Chelmsford, Essex, investing £4 million. The custom-built premises took just over 12 months to complete. 2018 We were awarded Investors in People Silver in 2018 demonstrating our commitment to high performance through good people management. 2020 Our core services include road surfacing, reactive maintenance, highway maintenance, highway engineering, surface treatments, winter maintenance, bridge installation, structure maintenance, cliff stabilisation, gully cleansing, traffic management, street lighting, emergency calls outs, road marking, and urban redevelopment.
