Veidekke ASA: The success continues at Frysja in Oslo
Stor-Oslo Eiendom, OBOS Nye Hjem and Veidekke have agreed to continue their good collaboration on the Frysjaparken project in Oslo. Design work on the 305 apartments in the third stage of construction is now underway, and construction work will be implemented as sales progress.
- We thank you very much for the commission and for the renewed trust. We have a really good collaboration with Stor-Oslo Eiendom and OBOS that we greatly appreciate, and now we can press on and develop both the construction processes and our team further. The Frysja Project is one of our foremost beacons for innovation with a number of technological innovations in automation and digitisation. Combined with good planning and operational efficiency, this has resulted in progress and productivity of the very highest class, says Hans Olav Sørlie of Veidekke Bygg.
Between the Nordmarka, Maridalsvannet and Nydalen lies Frysja. Here, industry is moving out and being replaced by around 900 homes, shops, a primary school, kindergarten, new infrastructure and parklands. In February 2018 Veidekke began construction of the initial 154 apartments for Stor-Oslo Eiendom and OBOS, this was followed in May 2019 with the mission to build a further 225 apartments and now the process of building the next 305 is underway.
- Frysjaparken is now in the process of establishing itself as a destination and we are very pleased to continue the good collaboration with Veidekke. We look forward to developing many new apartments and completing another section together with Veidekke, says the Development Director of Stor-Oslo Eiendom Arne Brovold.
- We are very pleased to be able to undertake more construction with Veidekke in another quarter of this beautiful urban development area on the edge of the Oslomarka, says Jørgen Stavrum, Project Director at OBOS Nye Hjem AS
The construction contract is a design and build contract of NOK 850 million excluding VAT, which will be included in Veidekke's order book when sufficient sales for starting construction have been achieved. Please see the project's website.
