Kent County Council has appointed Jackson Civil Engineering to build the Sittingbourne Northern relief road.
It had been anticipated that the work would be worth £26m, but Jackson has won the deal with a bid of £16m.
The work includes the construction of approximately 1.5km of single carriageway highway as well as two bridges, three retaining structures, one culvert and ground improvement measures.
The bridges comprise a 100m three span composite construction bridge over Milton Creek navigable waterway and a 40m single span composite construction bridge over a heritage railway.
Ground improvement measures include a piled load transfer platform across a closed landfill site and piling or band drains over low lying soft ground.
