On March 29, Finland-based steelmaker Ruukki announced that it has agreed the delivery and installation of steel structures for two bridges at Rotebro on the E4 highway between Stockholm and Arlanda in Sweden.
According to the company's statement, Ruukki's delivery will include both the load-bearing steel structures and the piles used in the foundations. The customer is NCC Construction Sverige AB and the contract is worth about €6 million ($8.44 million).
