6. Differences between building and construction
Building: - The asset is marketable
- Buildings are isolated objects
- The building is projected after choice of location
- Simple regulatory process
- Few neighbours
- Only building activity at the building site
Road constr.: - The asset is not marketable
- The road system is a network, where each road must be seen alike
- Road construction must be projected before the site is acquired
- Complicated regulatory process
- Numerous neighbours
- Other activities at the construction site (traffic), when existing roads are reconstructed

7. Important choices in our process:
Public ownership
Parallel tender considered, but abandoned
Tender material inspired by Norwegian concept
Type of tender with competitive dialogue

Observation of acquisition boundaries
Observation of official autorizations
Observation of road standards
Usage of low-noise asphalt
Important requirements – operation and maintenance:
Road must match the rest of the road network
Road users must not experience a difference
Usage of operation specifications
Construction requirements convert into performance and condition requirements

9. Important challenges, that are currently handled:
Payment model, including fine/bonus
Handling risks
Co-operation model / conflict management
Assignment criteria
Relations with authorities and landowners/neighbours
Quality of construction by expiry of contract
