BMO Entreprenør, a subsidiary of Endúr, has been awarded a contract €4.54 million for the rehabilitation of road bridges administered in southern Vestland county, Norway.

The scope of work includes concrete rehabilitation, steel surface-treatment, removal and installation of bridge railings and moisture insulation. Works are expected to start in few months and take around two and a half years with options for one-year extensions.

“We are delighted to secure our continued presence in the market for rehabilitation of bridges in Western Norway, said ”, says Aleksander Rød, chief executive of BMO. “We have a long and solid track-record in the region and look forward to cooperating with one of our most important customers.”

BMO Entreprenør, based in Kongsberg, is a major Norwegian provider of bridge rehabilitation of bridges, quays, dams and other concrete and steel structures.

The county is located in Western Norway and it is centred around the city of Bergen, Norway's second largest city after the capital Oslo and with a population of around 290,000.

Hardanger Bridge suspension bridge – the longest in Norway – crosses the Eidfjorden  to connect the municipalities of Ullensvang and Ulvik. It replaced a ferry connection and shortens the driving time between Oslo and Bergen.
