PORR has been represented in Norway since 2012 and has been operating under the name PNC Norge AS since 2016. 
 
The takeover of Bilfinger Infrastructure in Poland in 2015 made Norway into one of PORR’s project markets. These are markets in which we present our premium products in the infrastructure sector – from bridge building and tunnelling through to road and railway construction. We are committed to close cooperation with strong local partners on all of our projects.

Harpe bru

In this joint venture, PNC was responsible for the construction of Harpe bridge, which is the first of its kind in Scandinavia. Considering the large trout spawning grounds the bridge should not have more than two pillars in the river. The choice fell on a hybrid bridge, or a so-called extradosed bridge. The bridge was built as free cantilever from each tower axis, while the side span was built on scaffolding. The bridge with four lanes is part of the E6 and 324m long.

Tresfjordbrua

The Tresfjord Bridge is a 1290 metre long concrete box girder bridge that crosses the Tresfjord in Møre and Romsdal in a gentle U-bend. When it opened on 24 October 2015, Europavei 136 was shortened by around 12 km and the journey time between Åndalsnes and Ålesund was reduced by 20 minutes. The 160 metre long main span was built using the cantilever method, while the 60 metre long secondary span was built using a launching system. The foundations for the main span were constructed using two caissons at depths of 20 metres and 39 metres.

Fv17 Liafjellet – Olvikvatnet

Since the former road around Liafjellet had been exposed to landslides, PNC Norge AS built a completely new road through Liafjellet on behalf of Nordland County Municipality. The project included about 1900m tunnel works through Liafjell, about 400m tunnel works through Bakliholt as well as a landfill and bridge over Olvikvatnet. In total, the project stretched 5.5km.
