Peab has been commissioned to build roads and a railroad to Boden Industrial Park in Boden. The customer is Polar Structure AB and Boden Municipality and the contract is worth SEK 812 million. Peab will build a railroad that will connect Boden Industrial Park to the main line along with roads and pedestrian and bicycle paths to the industrial area.

The new railroad connection will run from the Swedish Transport Administration's existing northeast tracks to Boden Industrial Park. The railroad will then continue east past the foot of Gruvberget to curve around and connect with the Swedish Transport Administration's existing rails north of the Sävastklinten operations site. Boden Industrial Park covers 550 acres and is expected to be one of the world's greenest industrial areas.

There are good opportunities onsite to generate green electricity and establish space-intensive operations that can contribute to climate transition. The project is a turnkey contract and construction will start in the summer of 2024. The project will be order registered in the second quarter 2024.
