The turnkey project is set to commence planning immediately, with an expected completion date in May 2026.

Peab has announced that the project will be order-registered in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Peab region manager Olle Olsson said: “This is an important investment in the future for the young people in Munka Ljungby. We look forward to contributing our expertise to the project. Building a school is a vital community project for us.”

This new project follows Peab’s recent contract involving the construction of new rental apartments in Visby, Sweden.

Additionally, the company secured two contracts in August 2024 to construct a primary and middle school in Staffanstorp, Sweden, and the Søråsen stage four water and wastewater project in Norway.
