Veidekke ASA: To build ice rink and multi-purpose hall at Frogner Stadium
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Veidekke Entreprenør has been contracted by the Agency for City Environment in
the City of Oslo to develop and build a new indoor ice rink and multi-purpose
hall in close proximity to the venerable Frogner Stadium at Majorstua in Oslo.
The contract will be carried out as a collaborative contract between the Agency
for City Environment and Veidekke Entreprenør. The target price for the contract
will not be available until completion of the feasibility study in the autumn,
but the value of the contract will be more than NOK 100 million excluding VAT.
The project "Frogner ice rink and multi-purpose hall" is the final component in
a major development of Frogner Stadium. The new buildings will comprise:
* Ice rink with dressing rooms and operations areas close to 3,000 m(2) gross
area in size
* Multi-purpose hall with dressing rooms and operations areas close to 2,000
m(2) gross area in size This is planned to be completely subterranean in
order to minimize the volume of buildings above ground
* A joint intermediary building with entrance, offices, common rooms, meeting
rooms, café/dining approx. 750 m(2) gross area in size
The project is a model project in FutureBuilt - where the goal is to reduce
greenhouse gas emissions by 50 per cent in the areas of transport, energy use
and material use. The model project will have a high architectural quality and
contribute to a good city environment. Existing and new technical facilities
will be coordinated in order to provide uniform and energy efficient operation
of the sports facilities in the Frogner Park. The environmental requirements
will be documented by BREEAM Nor.
Development of the current concept starts immediately, while actual construction
will start in the spring of 2016. The buildings will be ready for use in the
autumn of 2017.
