This project includes the demolition of the existing facility, followed by rebuilding, expansion, and groundwork for the new building.
Peab region manager Susanne Hallberg said: “We feel we’re making a valuable contribution to Luleå Municipality’s ability to provide even better education in the community. I’m proud that we’re building to meet Luleå’s – and other municipalities’ – need for educational facilities with our local presence and employees for both.”
Peab plans to repurpose materials such as ceiling components, sanitary ware, and windows from the existing facility.
The project will be registered in the second quarter of 2025, the contractor said.
