LEMMINKÄINEN WINS RING RAIL LINE TUNNEL CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT IN VANTAA

Lemminkäinen has signed a contract with the Finnish Transport Agency for Ring Rail Line projects in Vantaa - interior construction work for a section of tunnel and the construction of a station reservation. The contract is worth EUR 13 million. Work will begin immediately and is scheduled for completion in May 2014.   

The new contract includes interior construction work for a 2.6-metre section of double tunnel, HVAC and electrical work, and the construction of a tunnel station reservation. The station reservation will enable the construction of the Viinikkala station at a later date, if required. 

Lemminkäinen is also installing the cable ducts and wells, and the drainage and sprinkler systems. In addition, Lemminkäinen will build connecting tunnels and switch rails.

"We are able to harness a broad range of our expertise in this project. We are able to offer our client services in both infrastructure construction and technical building services, thereby delivering synergistic benefits," says Jouko Viitala, Director, at Lemminkäinen.
