Vienna, 14 July 2014 Publicly listed construction group STRABAG SE has been contracted by Russia's Tula-Steel Company to build a steel production and rolling mill in Tula, some 200 km south of Moscow.

Construction of the project will begin in autumn 2014 and is expected to be completed within 36 months.
