Norway Construction Industry (Commercial, Industrial, Infrastructure, Institutional & Residential) to 2018 Report Available at RnRMarketResearch.com
Dallas, Texas (PRWEB) July 30, 2014 -- The Norwegian construction industry recorded a CAGR of 8.80% during the review period (2009−2013). Norway’s economy underwent an extended period of insubstantial expansion, due to decelerated growth in the real estate sector and a sharp increase in property prices. This was reflected in the construction industry’s growth, which slowed from 14.0% in 2011 to 9.4% in 2013. This decline was driven by a slump in residential construction and the weakening of the krone, following the European debt crisis. Industry outlook is still favorable, due to the government’s commitment to improving infrastructure. Industry output is expected to record a CAGR of 7.07% over the forecast period (2013−2018).

Under the New National Transport plan (2014–2023), a series of infrastructure projects will be launched over the forecast period to develop roads, highways, airports, railways and power supplies, which will ultimately lead to the all-round development and modernization of the country’s infrastructure. The government will invest NOK508.0 billion (US$85.3 billion) on transport for the next 10 years; NOK311.0 billion (US$52.2 billion) will be spent on roads, NOK168.0 billion (US$28.2 billion) on railroads and the remaining on other transport facilities.

The number of inbound tourists to Norway increased from 4.3 million in 2008 to 5.1 million in 2012. In October 2011, the government planned for the expansion of airport facilities, spanning 17,000m2 area at the Oslo Airport in Norway. The construction works include the construction of a new terminal 2 building, a pier, taxiways, departure and arrival areas, a new baggage handling facility, expansion of the security check point, central building, and 11 new parking areas with bridges, and six new remote parking areas. The expansion project will therefore help to increase the capacity of airport to 28 million passengers by 2017. The leisure and hospitality buildings construction category is expected to progress at an impressive rate, due to the steady rise in the number of travelers in the country.
In a bid to revive the Norwegian property market, the government reduced interest rates on mortgages. The relatively low rates are expected to contribute to an upturn in the demand for residential property. According to Statistics Norway, the central bank has had interest rates on hold since March 2012. An increase in the population and low unemployment rates will help to foster demand in the residential construction market.
