Skanska to construct Legal Center in Malmö for approximately SEK 300 M

Skanska has secured the contract to construct the Legal Center
(Rättscentrum) in Malmö. The customer is Vasakronan and the assignment
amounts to about SEK 300 M, which will be included in fourth-quarter
order bookings.

The project comprises a new building with 34,000 square meters of floor
space. Skanska will be responsible for additions to the existing
concrete structure and for the installation of fixtures and fittings.
The property comprises a new seven-story building in addition to a lower
building that will connect the new property to the existing police
headquarters. The building will house, among others, Skåne County
Police, the Swedish Prosecution Authority, the Swedish National Courts
Administration, the Swedish Economic Crime Authority and the Swedish
Prison and Probation Service.

Project planning will commence immediately. Construction work is
scheduled to commence in August 2011, with completion set for autumn
2012.

“We are proud that Vasakronan has chosen Skanska to construct the Legal
Center in Malmö. Skanska's experience from developing similar buildings
in Malmö and in other regions in Sweden will be of great benefit in this
significant project,” says Staffan Andersson, District Manager, Skanska
Sverige.

Skanska will implement the work according to the Green Workplace
concept, which is Skanska Sweden's own environmental label for
construction sites.
