Five colleagues have received top highways awards and recognition at the Highways Heroes Award 2022 during a glittering ceremony in London last night.

Jack Scott and Conor Morgan-Judd have received the award after their brave and quick-thinking actions helped to save the life of a man stabbed in the middle of the night in a central Manchester street.

They were nominated for the award following the terrifying incident in October 2021, while installing highway safety barriers in Manchester city centre.
