  This weekend in the heart of Stockholm: The golden Slussen bridge will be inaugurated, officially connecting Stockholm’s Old City with the city’s southern island, Södermalm. The grand opening of the bridge marks the projects half-way point. Tune into the ceremony together with the City of Stockholm: Stockholms stad, talented artists & speakers, and special guests: Sweden's King & Crown Princess live, October 25th at 11:00 CET: https://lnkd.in/e4AdzEr A little bit about a pretty big project? Slussen is a transportation hub full of motion transforming into a place for new connections. With about 500 000 people passing through daily, the 80-year-old current infrastructure is worn out and undersized for future needs. Its replacement is a vital issue for the entire region surrounding Lake Mälaren. Allowing five times as much water to pass through, reducing the current high risk of flooding, the new Slussen will also protect key infrastructure and safeguard clean drinking water for two million people.

  Did you know that the city-center of Kiruna is moving and that Skanska Sweden is currently building the city's newest landmark while it's happening? 200 km north of the Polar Circle Hotel Kiruna is coming to life - a 13-story design inspired by Sweden's tallest mountain, Kebnekaise. Its construction is part of the urban relocation that is taking place in Kiruna due to the city’s long history of mining. As a result of the mining, and the mine's expansion, it’s causing deformations in the ground, making the city move about three km east. “Building in an arctic climate is a challenge alone. The winters are long and there are sometimes periods with snowstorms and up to minus 30 degrees. This is also a “once in a lifetime project”, as we are a part of the historic move of a full city center,” says Bernt Lundstedt, Business Developer. #construction #hotel #kiruna
