Skanska's SEK 1 Billion Investment in New Office Complex
Skanska's Major Investment in the Future of Office Spaces
Skanska is on the path to transforming office spaces with a hefty investment of about SEK 1 billion towards a significant project at Solna Station in Arenastaden. This investment marks the first phase of the innovative Solna Link office complex. The construction contract, valued at approximately SEK 480 million, is anticipated to be a noteworthy addition to the order bookings for the region.
Details of the Office Building and Sustainability Goals
The newly planned office building will rise to nine stories and offer a substantial leasable area of around 16,000 square meters. Notably, the entire Solna Link project aims to encompass around 36,000 square meters. Beyond typical office areas, the ground floor is designed to host a variety of amenities, including a state-of-the-art gym, conference rooms, a lounge area, as well as dining options such as a restaurant and café — making it a vibrant hub for workers and visitors alike.
Sustainability is paramount in this project. The office complex will pursue LEED certification with aspirations to reach the Platinum level, showcasing Skanska's commitment to environmentally friendly construction practices. Furthermore, the project is pre-certified in accordance with NollCo2 standards and has aims to achieve WELL Gold certification, reflecting its focus on health and wellness in building design.
Timeline and Connectivity of the Project
Construction activities are expected to kick off in March 2025, with an anticipated completion date set for the first quarter of 2027. This timeline illustrates Skanska's dedication to not only creating jobs but also enhancing the infrastructure in the booming area.
The larger area surrounding Solna Station is undergoing continuous development, attracting various companies eager to tap into the abundant opportunities it presents. As Solna Station evolves into a central public transport hub, future enhancements will include the introduction of a new subway line planned for 2028, enhancing connectivity further. The area boasts excellent connections, allowing for seamless travel via buses, trams, commuter trains, subways, cars, and bicycles. Solna Link is strategically positioned next to Skanska’s earlier project, Solna United, completed in 2020, thus reinforcing the company's ongoing commitment to urban development.
