Asphalt plant to come to Longyearbyen in 2027
Velde AS will bring an asphalt plant to Longyearbyen in summer 2027 to produce and lay asphalt, the local council (Longyearbyen lokalstyre) said on Tuesday 10 November. The council said it wants to map the need among other players in the town too.
Private players who wish to order asphalt are asked to contact Velde directly as soon as possible. The contact is Åsbjørn Skrettingland (asbjorn@veldeas.no), and requests are made by email.
The council said changes in transport, capacity and execution may affect how much asphalt can be produced and delivered.
