OHLA awarded the Gjønnes tunnel in Norway for nearly 160 million euros

The Norwegian Public Roads Administration (Statens Vegvesen) has awarded the company the design and construction of the Gjønnes tunnel for 156 million euros.

This is a new highway connection between Gjønnes and the E18 highway at Strand, with a further connection to Fornebu. Specifically,  OHLA will construct a concrete tunnel of approximately 100 meters and a rock tunnel of roughly 1,400 meters. The technically challenging infrastructure will have two lanes and a cross-section of T9.5. In addition to the tunnel, a new intersection will be built at Gjønnes with a connection to Bærumsveien.
