The turnover of building construction went up by 9.4 per cent and that of specialised construction activities by 3.9 per cent from the previous year. In contrast, turnover continued to develop weakly in the civil engineering industry. In March to May, turnover decreased by 16.4 per cent from twelve months back.
In March to May, the sales volume of construction enterprises grew most in building construction, by 4.7 per cent. The sales volume of civil engineering contracted by 17.8 per cent and that of specialised construction activities by 0.7 per cent.
