Sweden-based contractor Skanska began the new year by announcing a slew of project wins. New awards in January included a $480 million bus depot in Queens and a $103 million academic commons building in Petersburg, Virginia.

One quarter into the year, here’s a look at some other projects coming down the pike for Skanska.

Skanska announced a new contract with “an existing client” to construct a data center in Atlanta worth $171 million. The contract will be included in the builder’s first quarter order bookings. Work on the one-story, 248,000 square-foot project is underway, and is scheduled for completion in March 2024.

Skanska signed a contract amendment with the Oregon Health & Science University worth $111 million, which will be included in the contractor’s order bookings for Q1 2023. The contract work includes more patient floors, parking, mechanical and electrical work, three pedestrian sky bridges, roadway improvements and a bus stop.

Construction on the 538,000-square-foot, 14-story building began in 2022, and the hospital is expected to open to patients in 2026.

Skanska announced it had won a contract worth about 1 billion Swedish Krona ($97 million) to build a climate, energy, environment and geosciences research facility in Oslo. It will become one of the first buildings completed in Oslo Science City, the Norwegian capital’s new innovation district.

Construction will start this month and wrap in 2026. When finished, what is currently a parking lot will be a 387,500-square-foot facility with public meeting spaces and an activity space for children. 

Skanska also announced it signed a $60 million contract with BHP Copper to construct the Solitude buttress main civil works project at the Solitude Closure Tailings mining site in Globe, Arizona. The project will entail stabilizing a tailings embankment and eliminating the potential for future dam slope failure from natural disasters, the company said.

Construction begins this month and will wrap up in March 2025.
