945 STRABAG has increased its stake in the A8 motorway operator PANSUEVIA. This share has been boosted from 50% to 100%. PANSUEVIA operates the autobahn stretch that runs between Ulm and Augsburg in the south of the country.

SRABAG purchased the 50% stake in PANSUEVIA that was previously held by HOCHTIEF. As a result, STRABAG is now the 100% owner of the concession company operating the Ulm–Augsburg section of the A8 autobahn. Both parties agreed not to disclose the purchase price however.

This section of the A8 route is some 58km-long section and was opened to traffic on schedule in September 2015, having taken just over four years to build. PANSUEVIA had designed, financed and carried out the widening of the section to six lanes and took over the maintenance and operation of the section for a period of 30 years. Construction was carried out by a joint venture consisting of STRABAG Großprojekte, HOCHTIEF Infrastruktur and Ed Züblin AG. The refinancing was concluded successfully in June 2016.
