| NCC to construct public transport hub in Bergen  NCC is to construct the new Birkelandskrysset traffic hub in Bergen. The contract with the county traffic company, Bybanen Utbygging, comprising a new tramway bridge, pedestrian and bicycle roads, a public transport terminal and a parking garage, is valued at SEK 490 million. NCC is a major contractor in the construction of Bergen Light Rail, and this is the seventh contract with Bybanen Utbygging.The civil-engineering site will be a Green Construction Site, NCC's proprietary environmental concept for construction and civil-engineering sites. This means that NCC will place stringent environmental demands in many areas. The project is scheduled for completion in November 2015. Since the new traffic hub will cross existing roads and pedestrian and bicycle paths, it is important that traffic is diverted in a safe and efficient manner during the construction period. Accordingly, a temporary bus terminal will be built, as well as a pedestrian and bicycle bridge across Birkelandskrysset. The project is scheduled for completion in November 2015. The order will be registered in the fourth quarter of NCC Construction Norway. write your comments about the article :: © 2013 Construction News :: home page |
