Atkins鈥� director in Norway H氓kon Dragsund said: 鈥淲e are heavily involved in a number of major tramway projects across Norway and this latest work complements other upgrade and expansion projects we are working on, including the Stavanger and Bergen light rail systems. Our consultancy offering in this sector has been growing over the past few years and this is evidence that our move to boost our expertise and capabilities is paying dividends by giving us the opportunity to work on the country鈥檚 most complex engineering challenges.鈥�
