The project consists of a new single story data center, totaling approximately 23,000 square meters.

Work is underway and is scheduled for completion in March 2024.

In addition, Skanska has signed a contract amendment with Oregon Health & Science University for its Hospital Expansion Project in Portland, Oregon, USA. The contract amendment is worth USD 111M, about SEK 1.2 billion, which will be included in the US order bookings for the first quarter of 2023.
