Nytt gjestebryggeprosjekt

NRC Group Norge has been awarded a contract by Svelvik municipality to construct a new guest jetty, spanning from the end of Dampskipkaien to Doktorparken, with completion expected in March of the following year. The design includes a three-part corrosion-protected sheet pile construction with openings for the Snekkerbekken outflow and a sewage pipeline, connected by a simple bridge over Snekkerbekken. A concrete crown is to be added on top, with a decking area inside.

Konstruksjonsstart og verdi

The project is valued at 8 million Norwegian kroner, and physical construction is set to begin in mid-November, with the handover scheduled for the last week of March 2020. The jetty is designed to withstand strong local tidal currents, up to 5 knots in the Svelvikstrømmen, and will be anchored in challenging soil conditions. Throughout the construction, uninterrupted ship traffic to and from Drammen Port must be maintained.

Forventet samfunnsverdi

The new guest jetty is highly anticipated by the citizens of Svelvik and visiting boaters, as part of the town's preservation and development efforts. The jetty is intended to blend with the town structure, enrich the lives of residents, enable more visitors to access the town by boat, and form a natural part of the coastal path. Project leader from NRC Group Norge, Marwan Mostafa, expresses pride in the trust Svelvik Municipality has placed in them.
