NCC to build interchange in Gothenburg for Swedish Transport Administration


NCC has been commissioned by the Swedish Transport Administration to construct
the Tingstad interchange in central Gothenburg, comprising roads and bridges
that are part of the Marieholm Connection Project. The order is worth SEK 633
million.
“We are pleased to be involved in the improvements to Gothenburg’s challenging
traffic situation. NCC aims to become a leader in infrastructure construction.
The Tingstad interchange contains several complex elements that will confirm our
expertise for major projects,” says Nils Bjelm, Head of the Civil Engineering
segment at NCC Construction Sweden.

The Tingstad interchange is one of the four subprojects of the Marieholm
Connection Project, a new traffic link under the Göta Älv River. The Tingstad
interchange is part of the E6 expressway, the arterial road between Gothenburg
and Oslo. NCC will construct roads and bridges for the project, which are
scheduled for completion in June 2020. The area is heavily trafficked with
80,000 vehicles passing every day.

“A major challenge in the project is that the E6 expressway passes right through
the construction area. Traffic will have to be re-routed to temporary roads
during the construction period. We are placing major emphasis on noise
suppression and our objective is to minimize disruptions for surrounding
residents,” says Nils Bjelm.

A total of approximately 35,000 tons of asphalt will be used during the project.
This will be manufactured at the Kärraverket plant, one of NCC’s environmentally
compatible asphalt plants, where the use of fossil fuels has been minimized and
replaced by wood pellets, NCC Green fuel (http://www.ncc.se/hallbarhet/vart
-miljoarbete/hallbara-koncept/greenfuels/). The asphalt from the existing E6
expressway will be recycled (http://www.ncc.se/produkter-och
-tjanster/atervinning-av-asfalt/) and included in the new paving material and in
other related projects.

The project will be implemented as a turnkey contract and employ up to 50
individuals. Work will commence in January 2015 and is scheduled for completion
on June 30, 2020. The order will be registered in the first quarter of 2015 in
the NCC Construction Sweden business area.
