Veidekke ASA: To build Diagonale at Bjørvika
Veidekke Entreprenør has signed a contract with A9 Palekaia AS (50% Thongård AS
and 50% HAV Eiendom AS) to build the cellar of the major Diagonale project close
to the opera in the centre of Oslo. This is a turnkey contract valued at NOK
150 million, excluding VAT.
The Diagonale project will be located between Dronning Eufemias gate and
Operagata. The entire project will include around 400 student homes, 14,000 m(2)
of offices and 4,000 m(2) retail/restaurants at street level. The whole project
will consist of two buildings linked by a common cellar.
"Now we are looking forward to getting started with construction. This will be
an exciting project with an extremely attractive location. The combination of
student bedsits, restaurants and offices will bring life to the area both during
the day and in the evenings. With Veidekke we have a contractor who both knows
Bjørvika well and who has extensive expertise and the ability to perform in this
type of project," says general manager Bernt Nordby Skøien with A9 Palekaia AS.
Construction work starts in November. See www.diagonale.no for more information
