05 April 2019 - 2:33PM
Papendrecht, 5 April 2019
The Province of South Holland has announced the
intended contract award to Royal Boskalis Westminster N.V.
(Boskalis) for a sub-project of the so-called RijnlandRoute. The
total value of the contract is more than EUR 100 million. The final
contract award is expected to take place at the end of April.
The RijnlandRoute is a new East-West road
connection from Katwijk to the A4 motorway near Leiden in the
Netherlands. The road addresses the current traffic congestion in
the region. In the context of the RijnlandRoute, Boskalis will
widen an existing road, construct a submerged section over a length
of nearly two kilometers, construct two grade-separated crossings
and construct and replace various bridges. Furthermore, Boskalis
will also be responsible for the 10-year maintenance of the
road.
Boskalis will apply a large number of its own
specialisms in the execution of the project, including civil
concrete construction, dry earthmoving and Boskalis subsidiary
Cofra will carry out soil improvement work. The activities will
commence mid-2019 and are expected to be completed by mid-2022.
