Most of our boatbuilders have taken a few weeks\u2019 break from the Gokstad ship to instead focus on connecting the walkway at the Coastal Culture Center with the reconstructed T\u00f8nsberg Ropewalk.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

An important part of the “harbor circuit” promenade is now in place, as the new walkway is officially opened by Mayor Frank Pedersen on Tuesday, June 17. Once fully completed, visitors will be able to walk car-free along piers and paths from bridge to bridge\u2014from the Canal Bridge to the pedestrian bridge on both sides. This is a key element of the project \u201cThe Canal as Urban Space\u201d, which will contribute to a positive transformation of the entire harbor area. The project is a major step toward reclaiming the waterfront for the benefit of the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Challenging Project<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

OVA\u2019s construction manager, Jan Vogt Knutsen, explains that connecting the two walkways has been relatively complex. \u201cHardly a single angle is straight, and there are many slopes, several levels, and some twisting. So, it\u2019s been both challenging and fun to work on.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under Jan\u2019s leadership, OVA\u2019s boatbuilders are becoming quite experienced in building walkways, thanks to this project and the earlier major development at Vikingodden. Projects like these represent welcome variation\u2014as well as welcome income\u2014for the continued development of Vikingodden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
