In order to designing a new road tunnel in Agder, south-west Norway, a contract was awarded to Systra.<\/p>\n
As part of a new road between the municipalities of Neskilen and Heftingsdalen, on the outskirts of Arendal, in Norway\u2019s southernmost county, this tunnels is 300m-long and beneath the Hesthagfjellet hill.<\/p>\n
Separating the flow of traffic between the port, where a new battery factory is due to be built, and the coastal road, which is used by tourists, will be done by this road.<\/p>\n
Considering that the geolog of path is hard rock, the tunnel is due to be built using traditional methods, following plans produced entirely using a centralised BIM model. Modelling the rock structure and designing the tunnel, access, electrical systems, drainage and environmental analysis with the aim of minimising CO2 emissions during construction, are the responsibilities of Systra.<\/p>\n
According to project manager Lars Christian Hansteen: “This is a significant strategic win for Systra.Firstly, it marks our first contract with this public client, offering the opportunity to establish a fruitful, long-lasting relationship with a major client that has several large projects in their pipeline for the coming years. Secondly, the project\u2019s environmental and digital requirements align perfectly with Systra\u2019s strategy.”<\/p>\n
Currently, the new road will connect with the new E18 motorway being built on the south Norwegian coast, a project Systra is also involved in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
