CARGOTEC CORPORATION, PRESS RELEASE, 12 SEPTEMBER 2017 AT NOON (EEST)
MacGregor, part of Cargotec, has signed a contract with Bouygues Travaux
Publics, one of the world's largest civil engineering construction companies, to
design, fabricate and install three linkspan facilities in France. The order is
booked into Cargotec's third quarter 2017 order intake and MacGregor equipment
will be delivered during 2020.

in the world together with Dover. Each floating linkspan will be constructed
from 1,500 tonnes of structural steel.

this customer since 2009 when we delivered two linkspans to Morocco in 2009, and

continues.
