Construction projects at Kringsjå

In Kringsjå Student Village, we have during the last few years upgraded the outdoor areas, opened a new laundry, built a new study room and built several new environmentally friendly student houses in solid wood, as well as opened the gym SiO Athletica Kringsjå.

SiO's main task is to offer housing for students in Oslo and there is a need for more student housing. We build as much as we can, and Kringsjå is well developed to welcome more students. After many years of preparation, we now have the opportunity to build more on our own property.

On this page, we will provide you with information continuously as early as possible during the project. We will update the information continuously. All dates stated on this page are subject to change.

In the second quarter of 2022 we started a large construction project in Kringsjå Student Village The construction time is estimated to last for 3 - 4 years. We will build 8 new buildings that will accommodate 487 studio flats and 96 three bedroom flats. The project has a goal of a climate reduction of 30 percent measured against current practice.

Olav M. Troviks vei 24 has recently been completely rehabilitated and Olav M. Troksvei 18 is undergoing rehabilitation and is expected to be completed at the end of December 2024.

Working hours are Monday - Friday between 07:00 - 17:00. Until Christmas 2024 there will also be works on Saturdays between 07:00 - 16:00. Unfortunately, there will be periods with significant noise and dust. Somewhat reduced access must be expected.

There is a study room with wireless internet access for students located at Olav M. Troviks vei 70. You can use your access card to enter the room. Opening hours are every day between 07:00 - 23:00.

We upgrade and relocate some parts of the pedestrian and cycle path between Lyn-banen and the student village. These works will last unit approx. mid June 2024.

The work started at the bottom Lyn court and up towards the Lyn clubhouse. Then we will continue to the upper part, from the Lyn club house and up to the turning point in Olav M. Troviks vei.

The footpath and cycle path will be closed to all traffic during the period the works are in progress. A temporary footpath and cycle path will run through the student village.

Working hours and noise The working hours are between 07:00-17:00. There will be some to a lot of noise from the work, depending on what is being carried out at any given time. If there is a need for drilling works, the degree of noise will be higher.

In the period July 29 to the end of December 2024, rehabilitation work will be carried out in Olav M. Troviks vei 18. The building will be completely renovated inside, and work will take place on the roof. Working hours are Monday – Friday between 07.00 – 17.00.

We are currently carrying out demolition works in the building, and this will continue until the end of September. These works cause extra noise while they are in progress.

When the demolition work is finished, there will be normal construction noise throughout the period. This includes, among other things, hammering, drilling, sawing and transport to and from the building.
