The client of the bridge project is the Swedish Transport Administration, Trafikverket, with which GRK signed an agreement on the project on 30 September 2025.
The Oxberg Bridge crosses the river Österdalälven in the Dalarna province. It is one of the few combined road and railway bridges in Sweden. The purpose of the project launched by Trafikverket is to replace the old combined bridge with two separate bridges, one for road traffic and one for rail traffic.
The project design phase will start in the autumn. Construction will commence in January 2026 and the project is expected to be completed by the end of 2028. In addition to the construction of bridges, the contract also includes track work and the construction of connecting roads.
"We have recently announced several new bridge projects in Sweden, such as bridges over Leipikälven, Vindelälven, Långsleå and Vojmå. The total value of these previously announced bridge projects is approximately EUR 24 million. It’s great to have another new bridge project added to the order backlog," says Carl Andersson, CEO, GRK Sverige AB.
The design of the Oxberg railway bridge took place through an architectural competition. It was won by the Danish company Dissing+Weitling with their proposal "Kinetik". The railway bridge to be constructed is made entirely of steel and has no concrete superstructure.
"The construction work will cause long interruptions in railway traffic, and construction over waterways presents special challenges, but at GRK, we have a lot of expertise in similar projects. The Oxberg Bridge will become a regionally important landmark."
