The work includes major tasks such as installing 39,000 rock bolts, 26,700 square meters of element walls, 5,800 cubic meters of shotcreting, and laying 47,900 square meters of membrane.

Kreate’s CEO Veli Taatila is pleased with this significant contract win, strengthening the company’s position executing demanding rock and concrete structures in the Swedish market. Work at the Lovön site will start in April and is scheduled for completion by the end of 2025 after exercising the option.

The Stockholm Bypass is a phased project aimed at promoting development in the rapidly growing capital region while protecting environmental and cultural values. Around 18 kilometers of the 21-kilometer road project will be built in tunnels.
