Cooperation is key to a good work environment

There are lots of things going on at construction sites that can be dangerous. In order to make construction sites safe and secure, the cooperation with the contractor is key.

The sounds of big machinery cracking loose boulders after the latest blast are both piercing and deafening. Although ear protection will moderate the sound significantly, it is still strong, and the vibrations from the work can be felt in the body.

The new metro is not only new routes and stations. Nothing would work without room to maintain the trains. That is why the metro depot in Högdalen is being expanded - the heart of the new metro circulation.

Published 08-04-2021

The expansion of the metro is in full swing around the Stockholm area. In Högdalen some of the most important work is under way to make the new metro a reality – here Högdalen depot is being expanded to accommodate the new trains inserted on the routes.

Each year the attitude towards the metro construction is surveyed among those living or being close to our building sites.

Since the first major survey was carried out in 2015, the public acceptance of the metro expansion has remained steady in at least 9 out of 10 responders. There are many choosing grades 3, 4 or 5 to the question "What is your attitude to the expansion of the metro?".

Head of communications Marianne Dunér has worked on several major projects:

Plattformsutrymme för tunnelbanan i Barkarby

The platform area for Barkarby station is getting ready. Follow us 30 metres underground where the passengers will be waiting for the metro in a few years.

– This is where you will stand and wait to embark on the metro and travel on to Kista or the T-central, or even further, says Peter Dahl, coordinating project manager for Blue Line to Barkarby.

The government wants to make it easier to use the rubble in an environmentally beneficial way. The Swedish Environmental Protection Agency is now tasked by the government to investigate how to handle this.

- This is an important and positive message for us. I assume that this means that we can handle the rubble as the resource it is and thereby avoid significant additional expenses and a large environmental impact, says Administration Manager Niklas Bergman.

Loretto Leguisamo Norén är samordnare för omgivningspåverkan på nya tunnelbanan. När tunnlar byggs under Karolinska universitetssjukhuset måste allt arbete utföras försiktigt.

The construction of the new metro to Arenastaden requires close cooperation with Karolinska University Hospital. The blast work will be adapted to the sensitive operation.

Published 23-03-2021

From Odenplan the new metro work is constructing tunnels to Arenastaden. This will involve work directly underneath Karolinska University Hospital and Karolinska Institute, where many sensitive operations and instruments are located.

Stockholmsgranit är grå eller rödaktig och är bra berg för tunnlar. Så här ser den ut under Londonviadukten. Vid kartering dokumenteras bland annat hur mycket sprickor det finns i berget. Ett valvformigt tak ger stabilare tunnel.

Preferably Stockholm granite but never episyenite. That is what the geologists want. Join us as we go down amongst the gneiss, fissure systems, and mountain cracks.

Geologists are carefully studying the rock dawning as the tunnels are blasted into being. Their tunnel mappings are important for how the work will proceed.

Förbifartens och nya tunnelbanans tunnlar korsar varandra med fem meters marginal väster om Akalla.

Just west of Akalla, two of Stockholm’s major infrastructure projects cross paths with each other. The new metro to Barkarby will be blasted into being five meters under the tunnels for the E4 Bypass Stockholm.

The need to adapt to other underground or built-in facilities is common when building in Stockholm. Good dialogue and early cooperation are therefore important.

Sweden’s longest escalator, latches, tiles, tracks and power lines shall be ordered. Although it will be several years before all tunnels are even completed, the planning work is already in full swing.
