Veidekke to build Os Sjøfront outside Bergen
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Veidekke Entreprenør AS has signed a contract with the housing cooperative
StorBergen Boligbyggelag to build the first phase of the residential project Os
Sjøfront. The project consists of two blocks of flats with a total of 41 flats
located in the municipality of Os outside Bergen. The value of the contract is
NOK 122.4 million excl. VAT.
Os Sjøfront AS is owned by StorBergen Boligbyggelag and the Profier Group. The
residential project was announced for sale in March this year and so far 40
percent of the homes have been sold. The company has thus decided that
construction work can go ahead.
The first phase consists of two blocks of flats with a total of 41 flats. The
contract also includes the construction of a 4,100 square metre parking facility
and a 6,300 square metre quay on steel pole foundations. The load bearing system
for homes and parking will be carried out using in situ concrete.
Construction is expected to start during September, with completion planned for
June 2012.
Veidekke Entreprenør AS has an option to build two corresponding residential
blocks of flats at Os Sjøfront.
"We are happy to start the work. This is a major project, where we have been
particularly concerned with the interaction between the residential environment
and the community. We believe that the proximity to Osøyro, the sea and the
cultural centre Oseana, which is under construction, provides a great setting
around Os Sjøfront," says Anne Gine Hestetun, managing director of StorBergen
Boligbyggelag.
