The second project is a design and build contract, carrying a value of SEK99m ($9.56m).
The construction of this project will start in March 2023, with its completion slated for spring 2024.

Both buildings are a part of Logistikposition Landvetter, a logistics hub in Sweden.
This hub has proximity to both airport and harbour and is suitable for transshipment of goods to Gothenburg as well as in the Nordic region.
BRA is also serving as the main contractor for the site’s groundwork and civil engineering.
The company will include the value of this contract in Q4 2022.
Last month, Veidekke received a contract from Asker municipality in Norway to build a work centre and sheltered housing at Nedre Sem Farm.
