Implenia wins new orders in Sweden worth CHF 60 million

Contract signed for the “Lunda Tunnel” near Stockholm | Successful acquisition of Bilfinger Construction units in Sweden bears fruit

Dietlikon, 25 August 2016 – Implenia has secured two new infrastructure contacts in Sweden worth a total of around CHF 60 million (SEK 523 million). The acquired projects involve complex infrastructure work for the Swedish Transport Administration (Trafikverket). Among other things, Implenia has been asked to build a second section of the E4 Förbifart bypass round Stockholm. The contract for Lot FSE 410“Lunda Tunnel”, signed today, includes the construction of two 1.6 kilometre-long parallel shafts. These will connect to the south with the “Johannelund Tunnel” (Lot FSE 403), for which Implenia won the contract in August 2015. Preparatory work on this lot is currently underway. The “Lunda Tunnel” involves an investment of around CHF 57 million (SEK 500 million). Together with the “Johannelund Tunnel” it should be ready to hand over to the client in 2021/2022. Implenia’s successful acquisition of the Swedish Bilfinger Construction units has given it good access to the market; following the Johannelund Tunnel, this is already the second major order it has secured in Sweden.
