Veidekke ASA: To renovate Vasa Real in Stockholm
Veidekke's subsidiary Arcona has been commissioned to renovate the Vasa Real
school for SISAB - The Stockholm School Properties Company. The contract amount
is SEK 255 million.
Work starts in January 2021 and is scheduled for completion in time for the
autumn 2023 start of the school year. The execution contract comprises both new
additions and renovation of existing buildings, and the school will be in
operation during construction.
Vasa Real is located in a growth area, with extensive new housing construction
and a corresponding need to increase student capacity. The school, which is
considered of cultural and historical value, consists of two buildings, which
will now be renovated and extended. Three new storeys will be added to an
existing extension from the 1960s. Adjacent to this building, a new four-storey
addition will accommodate a 162 children/nine-department preschool and a rooftop
learning room with a football pitch and play area. Vasa Real's kitchen and lunch
room will be completely overhauled, to accommodate a capacity of 2,700 portions.
A sports hall with eight locker rooms below ground will also be made available
for the use of other municipal schools as well as associations.
"We are very pleased to see another great project come out of our collaboration
with SISAB and the Stockholm education administration," says Lars Karlström,
project manager at Arcona. "We are committed to creating an amazing school and
stimulating learning environment for even more students. With the school in
operation throughout the construction period, our attention will be focused on
logistics, work environment and third parties."
"SISAB and the Stockholm education administration is looking forward to
realising our plans on behalf of Vasa Real's students and staff in collaboration
with Arcona. This is a good project, to which all involved carry a great joint
responsibility towards the school children and the city of Stockholm," says Per
Lundvik, project manager at SISAB.
Arcona has already completed a number of school projects for SISAB, including
Skanskvarnsskolan in Årsta, Framtidens förskola Blågull in Hässelby and Östra
Reals gymnasium in Stockholm.
The contract is included in the order book for the current quarter.
