This includes excavation, drilling, laying the pipeline, as well as stocking renovation of parts of the existing pipeline. The Agency for Water and Sewage will be responsible for quality assurance and professional inspections during the engineering design services for and execution of the water and sewage installations.
The aim of the procurement is to upgrade Frysjaveien to a safer, aesthetically, and more appropriate road for cyclists and pedestrians. The number of inhabitants in the area is increasing, who need a safer and more accessible street. The work must be carried out in 3 phases due to the ongoing and future transformation. This procurement is for construction phase 1, which covers the establishment of pavements, cycle lanes, and green verges as described in the attached drawings and description.

The Agency for Urban Environment announces that contest 125-BYM-2021 - Contractor for upgrading roads in the urban development area Frysja is cancelled, cf. the public procurement regulations, section 25-4 (1). The reason for the cancellation is a lack of competition in the procurement. Only two tenders were received, one of which was rejected as the tenderer was not qualified.
There is uncertainty as to whether, or possibly when, a new equivalent procurement will be made, cf. the public procurement regulations, section 25-4 (2).
