These communities will be constructed to meet environmental standards. 

In addition, the project includes the preservation and rehabilitation of an existing gym, transforming it into a community centre. It is currently used for local recreation.  

Furthermore, the development will introduce a new public playground. 

These will all fall under the same contract as the housing development project, collectively named Haugland Housing Community. 

Åsane Byggmesterforretning managing director Frank Ståløy said: “We are proud to have been selected to execute the Haugland Housing Community project. The stringent environmental requirements set by the client, along with the project’s architecture and site conditions, make it professionally very interesting.  

“We look forward to starting the project and developing an area with socially beneficial buildings, in close collaboration with Bergen Municipality.” 

Construction is expected to commence in late-2024, with the construction period spanning 24 months. 

This comes after AF Gruppen‘s subsidiary HMB secured a turnkey contract to construct 87 apartments in the Stockholm district of Nockebyhov/Bromma in Sweden last month.
