Veidekke: New housing commission in Sandnes
Veidekke has been commissioned by K2 Bolig and Bane NOR Eiendom to erect the first stage of the Skeiane station residential project in Stavanger. The contract comprises includes 47 apartments, common rooms, guest bedsits, a separate parking and bicycle garage and commercial premises. This will be a design and build contract valued at close to NOK 100 million, excluding VAT.
“We are very pleased to have won the competition for this commission and to have gained renewed trust from a good customer in K2 Bolig and Bane NOR Eiendom. This is a great project with good qualities and a nice location in the heart of Sandnes. We have extensive and good experience with this type of project, so this is a good match with our portfolio and gives us good continuity in our focus on apartment housing," says district manager Bendik Aarstad with Veidekke Bygg Rogaland.
The project is centrally located near Skeiane railway station and is bordered by the Sandved park. The building will have six floors and the apartments vary in size from 42 to 111 m2. Each apartment has a balcony, of which most face a recreational street with benches, playground equipment and trees, completely free of through traffic.
“We are very pleased with the start of sales and the positive response in the market. Since the end of 2023, 36 buyers have found their dream home at Skeiane station. In the course of the summer alone we have sold seven apartments, and there are still some apartments available in the first stage. Our goal is occupation in the third quarter of 2026,” says project manager Brit Sølvi Sandstøl at K2 Bolig.
Veidekke has started demolition work on the site, while construction work starts in October. In a short time, stage two will be launched consisting of 25 apartments in a five-story apartment building. K2 Bolig and Bane NOR Eiendom have agreed with Veidekke that construction of second stage will start when sufficient advance sales have been achieved.
The commission is included in Veidekke’s order book for Q3. Read more about the project here.
