Veidekke has signed a contract withStockholm Vatten ochAvfall AB for the construction of the new Östberga tunnel, which is part ofStockholm's future wastewater treatment system. The execution contract has a value of approx.SEK 600 million . The new tunnel is expected to be commissioned in 2026. The new Östberga tunnel is an environmental improvement project intended to makeStockholm's wastewater structure more robust and able to handle larger volumes of wastewater and precipitation. The project comprises two main parts. First,Veidekke will construct a 2.2 kilometres mountain tunnel for surface water, with two associated service tunnels, each of approx. 250 metres length. The mountain tunnel will be outfitted with a cast concrete floor, most of the pipe installations, and steel hatches to regulate water flow.
