Polar station modernisation project

Rothera Research Station, the Antarctic science hub of the British Antarctic Survey (BAS), is in need of modernisation and will be transformed into a cutting-edge science and operations facility.

The ten-year project is a multidisciplinary undertaking that includes a wide scope of expertise. Several Sweco experts are part of a 20-person construction team that is carrying out the work.

Walkway and flood protection

For several years, Uddevalla has had problems with flooding from the Bäveån River due to rising sea levels and heavy rain. To future-proof the city and save the attractive environments along the water, they studied how a walkway with flood protection could be built – work that has proven to be challenging.

On track to lowering passenger emissions

Bergen Light Rail is a public transportation network solution that is seen as a key to minimising passenger traffic emissions in Bergen, Norway’s second largest city.

Sweco was commissioned in 2015 to oversee the planning and design of the Light Rail’s fourth phase; a new line between Bergen’s city centre and the suburb of Fyllingsdalen which will run above ground and through tunnels, and will also include the Light Rail’s first underground station.
