STOCKHOLM METRO EXTENSION

Construction of three extensions of the Stockholm metro with a total length of 19.6 km and 11 underground stations.

The project consists of three separate deep underground line extensions to the Stockholm Metro. The extensions are for Arenastaden (4.1 km of track with 3 stations), Barkarby (4 km with 2 stations) and Nacka och Söderort (11.5 km with 6 stations).

The project falls under Annex II of the EIA Directive 2011/92/EU and may therefore require Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA). The promoter is also required to declare that the project has no negative impact on an area forming part of the Natura 2000 network (falling under the Habitats Directive 92/43/EEC or Birds Directive 79/409/EEC, as amended by Directive 2009/147/EC).

The Bank will require the promoter to ensure that contracts for the implementation of the project have been/shall be tendered in accordance with the relevant applicable EU procurement legislation (Directives 2004/18/EC and/or 2004/17/EC as well as Directives 89/665/EEC and 92/13/EEC) as interpreted by the Court of Justice of the EU, with publication of tender notices in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU), as and where required.
