Winter Digging

Winter Digging
A new housing area is being built at Lillgården in Tungelsta. Between Söderbyvägen and Stavsvägen. It will consist of 85 row houses, a pre school and a park. I think this recently dug ditch will be a future water storage dam. Next to it a new bike path will connect with Stavsvägen at Lillhammar. There will also be a number of allotment gardens just to the left of here. Mera info här.

Looks like you have found another photo project. I am looking forward to seeing more photos as the construction proceeds.

Stefan Jansson said...

Indeed Andy, I will do that. I have one previous post about this construction site.

That's quite a project Steffe.. I'm guessing it's aimed at young families, such a great idea. I'm also looking forward to seeing its progress, does it have a completion date?

Stefan Jansson said...

I think they are also planning a retirement home here. Haven't found any info about the completion date Grace, but I do know who to ask and I will try to do that. One of the first strangers I photographed a few years ago now, Rikard Lundin, is (or was), heavily involved with this project.

Hard work!

I bet it will look really nice once it's done. That's a really big place for some new buildings.

Mycket välgrävt dike, måste jag tillstå. Snittytan är klinisk. Det ser däremot fjuttigt ut med den lilla rännilen av vatten längst där nere i botten.

Jag håller med övriga kommentatorer, det ska bli spännande att följa detta bygge förutsatt att du då och då fotar det förstås. :-)

In Florida we call such a project "paving over Paradise." I do like the idea of a new bike path, though!

What a strange kind of dig, it looks almost alien! Or maybe it is only its shape or the dark terrain...

Working in the elements in winter doubles the pain. Turn up the heat.

That's quite a trench.

I should say that all the new buildings will be behind where I am standing across the road. On this side they will have the dam, a park and the bike path.
