Peab builds new raw water line in Skåne

Peab has been contracted to build a new raw water pipeline, which in the long term will increase the security of western Skåne's drinking water supply. The client is Sydvatten AB and the contract amounts to SEK 232 million.

The mission is a cooperative project in the form of partnering, and means that Peab together with Sydvatten will build a new raw water pipeline from Äktaboden outside Perstorp to Ringsjö water plant in Stehag. The pipeline will be 25 km long and the pipes have a diameter of 1.6 meters.

The collaboration started already in the planning phase, which means that Peab as contractor could contribute knowledge at an early stage regarding the construction process.

Start of construction is planned for spring 2016. The project is scheduled for completion summer 2018.

The project will be reported in the first quarter in 2016.
