Ready for six new districts in Barkaby, Sweden

Another detailed plan to develop Veddesta’s old town center in Barkarby has entered into force.

The detailed plan covers six blocks with between 600 and 900 housing units, offices, retail, and public services. The buildings range from five to 24 floors. The detailed plan also includes a freestanding preschool, an integrated preschool, and two park corridors for play and recreation. The properties are owned by Castellum and Regio.

The plan includes buildings from five to 24 floors. The tallest building will become a landmark in the new urban environment.

Connecting Stockholm and Mälardalen

The blocks are located 500 meters from Barkarby’s new transport hub, which in 2027 will connect Stockholm and the Mälardalen region.

“Barkarby has an incredible potential as Stockholm and Mälardalen’s new regional hub. These blocks are an important part of developing the area into one of Sweden’s most dynamic and vibrant places,” says Eva Ullberg (S), Chairman of the Municipal Council in Järfälla.

The area will be developed in stages. Construction of the first two blocks is planned to start next year.

“The blocks will have a very nice and central location, close to public transport with park corridors and a vibrant urban environment right outside. This area is an important part of the development of the entire Veddesta,” says Emma Feldman (M), 1st Vice Chairman of the Municipal Council in Järfälla.
