Aarsleff and Køge Municipality enter into partnering contract on extension of Køge Harbour

Over the coming 10-12 years Køge Municipality and Aarsleff in partnering are to
extend a large area around Køge Harbour at an estimated value of DKK 950
million. 

The extensive construction work is part of Køge Municipality's plan for the
near-shore areas at the harbour. The harbour itself is currently under heavy
development and the extension possibilities for the industrial and harbour
areas are limited. 

Therefore, a 40-hectare landfill consisting of polluted soil from the Greater
Copenhagen area will be established. Furthermore a new and bigger dock will be
established. 

The coming contracting works around the harbour comprise, among other things:

• Establishing and running the landfill. 
• Receipt of two million cubic metres of lightly and medium polluted soil to
constitute the 40-hectare fill. 
• Establishing two new jetties and driving of sheet piles to enclose the
landfill. 
• Extension and improvement of the recreational areas to the north and south of
Køge Harbour. 

The final closing of contract does not give rise to a change in the outlook for
the profit for the financial year 2006/2007.
