Construction of this project is expected to begin in the second quarter of this year and is slated for completion in 2024.
Veidekke is also developing a new primary school for around 1,000 students on the property developed by Nystad for educational and sports activities.
Nystad Stadsutveckling project manager Niklas Skerfving said: “We are happy to have signed the agreement with Veidekke and to start the construction of three new sports facilities with the Stockholm City Sports Administration as a tenant. Primarily dedicated to the city’s children and young, this will be Stockholm’s finest sports facility.”
