Pöyry’s urban business group has been handed a five-year maintenance management contract for the Eastern Finland railway network.
The firm will be responsible for the maintenance management of the railway, its structures and equipment, land areas and buildings owned by the Finnish Transport Agency in Eastern Finland.
Pöyry has managed the 1,800km network since 2005 and will begin the new contract in 2013.
The deal is estimated to be worth around 5.2 million euros and includes an option for a maximum of two years.
Seppo Mikkonen, regional manager of the Finnish Transport Agency in Eastern Finland, said: “We have been very satisfied with Pöyry’s previous work. We believe that their knowledge of local conditions and experience provides a good basis for the years to come.”
