The basic work for the hangar site, which will house the surveillance aircraft P-8, started in 2020 and was completed in July 2021. Peab's assignment includes the construction of a total of 21,500 square meters of hangar, warehouse, workshop and administration building.

- As a local player and community builder in northern Norway, it is fantastic to be able to sign a contract for such an important building in this part of the country. We look forward to getting started at Evenes, and are happy that we have brought with us several local subcontractors and suppliers in the project, says Gro Skaar Knutsen, regional manager of Peab Norway.

The project will be notified of orders in the third quarter of 2021.
