The construction company HENT and Fornebubanen have signed an agreement for the construction of the two stations Fornebuporten and Flytårnet on the new Fornebubanen metro line in Oslo, Norway. The contract is valued at NOK 1.67 billion.
The contract covers the construction of two metro stations and consists of concrete and platform works, access buildings and technical installations such as escalators, lifts, and technical rooms. Certain outdoor work and landscape architecture are also included in the contract.
“HENT has added another exciting and prestigious contract to its already impressive order book. The company is a community builder in its truest sense. Thanks to our unique experience built up over many years, we can contribute to the residents of Oslo being able to travel climate smart in the future,” says Christian Johansson Gebauer, Chairman of the Board of HENT and President, Business Area Construction & Services, Ratos.
“This agreement is an important milestone for HENT. We have been working on the project for a long time and have several good experiences from similar projects in the interface between infrastructure and construction. The project involves several challenges in terms of planning and operational implementation in combination with complex building structures, high quality requirements and ambitious environmental requirements. We thank Fornebubanen for their trust, and look forward to a good collaboration in the coming years,” says Jan Jahren, CEO, HENT.
