Construction and civil engineering firm Veidekke has secured a design and build contract worth $15.12m (NOK132m) from Asker municipality to construct Søndre Borgen Helsehus at Borgen in Asker, Norway.

Located to the west of the current health building, the facility will be a new, detached health building for 40 residents situated near the existing health building at Borgen.

With total gross area of around 4,700m2, the four-storey building will include exercise room, a therapy room, residents’ room, wardrobe facilities for employees along with many other support function rooms for residents, relatives and employees.

An eco-friendly and efficient geothermal heating system will also be installed in the new building.
Construction work on the project is scheduled to commence this October with completion planned in August 2023.

Veidekke Bygg Buskerud district manager Gro Brathovde said: “We are very pleased to have won this project, as health buildings are a priority area for Veidekke.

“We have previously undertaken several good projects with Asker municipality, whom we perceive as a professional and good customer to work for, and it is therefore especially pleasing that we won the competition for the assignment.”
