The Design Build Finance and Operate (DBFO) contract with Connect Plus M25 does not outline that financial deductions can be made in relation to litter clearance. However, where Connect Plus M25 is in breach of its contractual obligations, it may be issued performance points. If points are accrued in sufficient numbers, contractual sanctions and financial implications for Connect Plus M25 are possible.
