Veidekke: Awarded Contract to Expand and Refurbish Bryn School for Oslobygg

Oslobygg has awarded Veidekke the contract to expand and refurbish Bryn School in the Teisen area of Oslo. The contract is a design and build contract valued at NOK 533 million excluding VAT.

“We are very pleased that our tender was ranked the best and would like to thank Oslobygg for its trust. In partnership with Oslobygg, we will carry out a wide range of works, from demolition and the refurbishment of three heritage-listed buildings to the construction of a new teaching facility and a sports building,” says Thomas Julusmoen, District Manager at Veidekke Bygg Oslo.

As project owner, Oslobygg has set ambitious environmental targets: “At Bryn School, we are placing a strong emphasis on reuse and environmentally friendly materials. As with all projects undertaken by the City of Oslo, this project will also be delivered with an emission-free construction site,” says Kristine Wangen, Project Manager at Oslobygg.

The two new buildings will comprise a total of 7,000 square metres. The buildings to be refurbished – the school’s original main building and two villas – comprise a total of 4,000 square metres. Veidekke’s scope of work also includes the further development and upgrading of the school’s outdoor areas.

Construction works will commence after the summer break, with planned completion in time for the start of the school year in autumn 2029.

The contract will be included in Veidekke’s order backlog for the second quarter of 2026.
