Veidekke's subsidiary Arcona has been commissioned to renovate and extend
Skanskvarnsskolan in Årsta, just outside Stockholm, for The Stockholm School
Properties Company, SISAB. The project is an execution contract with a contract
sum of SEK 147 million. Work starts in June and is scheduled to be completed in
June 2022.
Skanskvarnsskolan is being expanded in order to meet current school building
requirements and to accommodate the student body that is expected in the
upcoming years. An existing building will be demolished and replaced by a new
school building with a gross area of 6,000 square meters, comprising a gym, an
institutional kitchen, a lunch room and premises for educational and leisure
activities. The contract also comprises renovation of the school yard and an
adjacent road with turning area. School and preschool activities will be ongoing
in other school buildings and in the school yard throughout the construction
period. The new building will be certified to the environmental standard
Miljöbyggnad SILVER.
"SISAB and the education administration are looking forward to realising our
plans for students and staff at Skanskvarnsskolen in collaboration with Arcona.
This is a good project, where everyone involved share a common responsibility
towards the children and the Stockholm municipality," says Helene Logren,
project manager, SISAB.
"We are proud and excited to enter into another collaboration with SISAB and
the education administration - now concerning Skanskvarnsskolan," says Ella
Bringle, project manager, Arcona. "We are expecially excited to be building
great modern premises for our children. As the school will be operational
throughout the construction period, high attention will be paid to logistics,
work environment, and third parties."
Arcona is also reconstructing the preschool "Framtidens förskola Blågull" in
Hässelby for SISAB. Last autumn, the company completed a major renovation of
Östra Real's upper secondary school in Stockholm.
