Veidekke signed E18 contract in Vestfold
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Today Veidekke Entreprenør AS has signed a contract with the Norwegian Public
Roads Administration to build the second stage of a total of three stages on the
Gulli - Langåker stretch. The contract comprises the Holmene - Tassebekk
stretch, and the value of the contract is NOK 425 million excluding VAT.
The E18 road in central Vestfold is to be expanded from a two-lane road to a
four-lane road between Gulli and Langåker. A total of 24 kilometres of new road
is to be built under three contracts. Currently it is the 6.95 kilometre stretch
between Holmene and Tassebekk that is in line.
The existing two-lane road is being expanded to a four-lane road with a central
divider. The current two-lane road is to be upgraded to new northward lanes,
while two new lanes for southward traffic will be built to the west of the
current road. The dimension class for the new road is S9 with a 100 km/h speed
limit and a road width of 28 metres.
The contract comprises all work including asphalt and marking. Electrical/MRM
work (management, regulation and monitoring) and local noise measures will be
carried out under separate contracts. The project will be carried out in
cooperation with Veidekke's subsidiary Trafikk & Anlegg AS. Work starts at the
turn of the year, and is to be completed in October 2014.
