The AF Group (AFG) has been appointed by the
Norwegian Public Roads Administration as contractor
for the development of the E 18 at Sydhavna in Oslo.
The contract is for the construction of a new two-
level crossing on Mosseveien at Kongshavn /
Karlsborgveien. The E 18 will continue with a single,
uninterrupted lane in each direction in a concrete
underpass under the crossing. Traffic to and from the
harbour will be via a roundabout above the E 18 and a
new bridge from the roundabout, over the railway line
and down to the harbour area.
The contract is valued at NOK 307 million, excl. VAT.
The project includes site preparation work,
construction and road building. Work will start in
early spring, after a planning period. The project is
scheduled for completion by 15 October 2015.
"The E 18 at Sydhavna is a very exciting project for
the AF Group. We have good experience from our
collaboration with the Public Roads Administration on
the Bjørvika project," says Pål Egil Rønn, CEO of the
AF Group.
