Roads

Mannvit Engineering has been closely involved in road design and highway design at locations all around Iceland, including traffic structures and utilities.  Highway design, street reconstruction design and re-planning have formed a major part of the services offered to the City of Reykjavík, Iceland's Public Roads Administration, as well as to other cities, communities and municipalities all across the country. 

Specialists at Mannvit have worked on all types of road projects, including city and residential streets, dual-lane highways, bicycle & pedestrian pathways, tunnels and bridges. We have experience in all phases of road and highway design and engineering, from concept to the operational and road maintenance phases.
