Skanska to build shopping center in Norway for SEK 460 M

Skanska has been contracted to build one of Norway's largest shopping centers,
Amfi Steinkjer, outside Trondheim. The contract amounts to NOK 400 M, about SEK
460 M, which is included in order bookings for the fourth quarter. The customers
are Amfi Bygg Steinkjer AS and Coop Steinkjer BA.

The new shopping center will comprise a total of 35,000 square meters and
provide space for about 120 stores. Part of the project involves a new
7,700-square-meter OBS department store, with an underground garage with space
for about 300 cars. The project also includes a two-story building that will
link the shopping center's new and existing sections, as well as facilities for
ground-level parking, pedestrian walkways and approach roads.

Work begins immediately, with completion scheduled during 2010.

Skanska Norway focuses on building construction and civil engineering. The unit
has about 4,700 employees. In 2006, Skanska Norway had sales of about SEK 10.6
billion. Skanska is also active in Norway in the development of housing projects
and Public Private Partnership (PPP) projects.
