“We’re pleased with the results of this year’s tender round and are looking forward to taking over responsibility in the new contracts from September. In addition, we are very pleased to have been given renewed trust in four of our ongoing contracts that were nearing the end,” says director Kjell Otto Bragstad with Veidekke Road Maintenance.

In addition, Møre og Romsdal, Vestland and Trøndelag county municipalities have chosen to use options to extend four previously concluded contracts.
Veidekke will thus be responsible for the operation and maintenance of around 13,000 kilometres of national and county roads, including pedestrian and cycle paths. Annual revenue from this part of Veidekke’s business amounts to around NOK 2 billion excl. VAT.
“Together with our clients and local partners, we will do what we can to ensure that road users experience good and safe driving conditions – summer and winter – in our 24 contract areas from Finnmark in the north to Agder in the south,” Bragstad concludes.
The contracts include routine operational tasks and minor maintenance tasks on the road network to ensure safe and efficient traffic and maintain the roads to ensure the desired service life. The key tasks are clearing, gritting, salting, tunnel and sign cleaning, maintaining landscape areas, clearing ditches and drains, cleaning roads and rest areas and emergency preparedness in the event of accidents and extreme weather conditions.
Of the new contracts and redeemed options, NOK 950 million was included in Veidekke’s order book in the first quarter and NOK 1 billion will be included the second quarter of 2025.
