Peab has secured the contract to construct Gothenburg’s new station building, which will serve as the main entrance to new city district Centralstaden in Sweden.
Valued at approximately Skr87m ($83.19m), the turnkey contract in partnering form has been commissioned by Jernhusen.
This award follows a first-phase agreement where Peab collaborated with Jernhusen to refine the project’s specifications, manage risks, and ensure quality.
The construction contract marks the commencement of phase two.
Jernhusen regional manager Caroline Ahrnens Martin said: “We at Jernhusen are pleased to finally get started with the construction of this important addition to Gothenburg Central Station.
“We’re making it easy for passengers and residents from all over the region to choose the train and be able to move smoothly from the station to the next stop. We have high expectations for everything from architecture to climate footprint and sustainability.”

By GlobalDataThe project is said to become the largest of the three entrances for the West Link station Centralen.
Gothenburg Grand Central will be a 15,000m² structure with a 100% recycled brick facade.
Its design includes spacious interiors and multiple entry points.
The project plans to use wood for the building’s frame and joists, and ECO-Concrete, recycled steel, and other low-impact materials throughout the construction process.
The complete structure is anticipated to be finalised in the first half (H1) of 2027.
Peab will officially register the project in Q3 2024.
