Sweco has been awarded a contract by regional public authority Region Skåne for planning and designing a new emergency hospital campus in Helsingborg. If all options are exercised, Sweco's total order value is estimated to be approximately SEK 225 million between 2026 and 2035.
The new hospital will be one of Sweden's largest healthcare property projects in modern times. It is scheduled for completion in the latter part of the 2030s and will replace the current main hospital area in Helsingborg.
"We are proud to be part of this prestigious project, combining the expertise of Sweco's architects and engineers with our extensive European experience in healthcare infrastructure. Together, we will help shape a modern hospital that is resilient, efficient and flexible for both patients and staff," says Fredrik Wallner, Business Area President, Sweco Sweden.
Helsingborg is one of southern Sweden's growing urban centres, with population growth driving demand for modern healthcare infrastructure. The new hospital campus will be built as an integrated part of the new urban district of Östra Ramlösa, which is planned to include housing, green infrastructure and key public services.
Sweco's initial assignment covers the design brief stage, with options for continued involvement through to the hospital's scheduled completion in the latter part of the 2030s.
