(AWP) The order has a volume of 1 billion Swedish crowns (98 million Swiss francs), like Implenia (IMPN 21.70 +4.58%) announced in a communiqué on Friday.
The contract for the connecting tunnel to the extended Högdalen metro depot comes from Region Stockholm, Förvaltning för utbyggd tunnelbana, the state-owned company responsible for Stockholm’s metro infrastructure. The project includes the construction of the necessary infrastructure to connect the expanded depot to the existing Farstagrenen metro track.
A new concrete tunnel will be built at the connection point to Farstagrenen. The rock tunnel consists of an approximately 2-kilometer-long track tunnel and a 500-meter-long underground storage area for trains, it was said. Implenia will also install the electrical, telecom, control systems, ventilation and sprinkler systems in the tunnel.
