2026-10-01 08:45:05
Veidekke and Union Residential Development have entered into an agreement to
establish a partnership for the development of the Sandakerveien 113-119
residential project in the Nydalen district of Oslo. Veidekke will acquire a 25
per cent ownership stake in the project, while Union will own the remaining 75
per cent. Veidekke will serve as the design and build contractor for the
development.
Sandakerveien is a major residential development project located in central
Nydalen. The property is fully zoned, and the project comprises approximately
450 homes to be developed in several phases. The first sales launch is planned
for 2027, and the development is expected to be completed in 2032.
"This agreement strengthens Veidekke's position as a leading residential
contractor in Oslo. The Sandakerveien project is fully aligned with our strategy
of making selective project investments alongside experienced and highly
competent customers and partners. As both co-owner and contractor, we are able
to participate in the project's development from an early stage, which is
important to us," says Hans Olav Sørlie, Executive Vice President of Veidekke
Building Norway.
"Sandakerveien is an exciting residential development project. The site is fully
zoned and enjoys a highly attractive location in one of Oslo's most established
urban areas, providing an excellent foundation for developing high-quality
homes. With Veidekke as both co-owner and design and build contractor, the
project gains a partner with extensive residential expertise and strong local
execution capabilities," says Baard Schumann, Managing Partner at Union
Residential Development.
Veidekke's 25 per cent ownership stake represents an expected investment of
approximately NOK 100 million in 2026. Total construction revenue for the
project is estimated at approximately NOK 1.6 billion over the project's
lifetime.
The construction contracts will be included in Veidekke's order backlog as
contracts for the individual development phases are awarded.
