Contract Awarded by the Swedish Fortifications Agency
HMB Construction, part of AF Gruppen, has been commissioned by the Swedish Fortifications Agency to carry out a construction project at Ärna F16 in Uppsala. The contract value is approximately SEK 112 million, excluding VAT.
The project includes the construction of two shelters, a heated storage facility, a smaller cold storage unit, and a new transformer station. The work will be delivered as a turnkey contract, with high demands on planning, technical documentation, and execution within a classified area. Special consideration must be given to the site conditions, including foundation work on clay and proximity to the river, which requires piling with concrete piles.
“We look forward to collaborating with the Swedish Fortifications Agency on the assignment at Ärna F16. It is a technically advanced project, and we are pleased that HMB has been entrusted to deliver a solution that meets the high standards required,” says Bård Frydenlund, EVP of AF Gruppen Sweden.
Design work will commence in autumn 2025, with construction scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter of the same year. The construction period is estimated at approximately one year, with completion expected in December 2026.
