Swedish Skanska has been contracted to expand the road E45 to motorway (four lane road) and to expand the railway with a second rail track on parts of the phase Bohus-Nödinge in Western Sweden. The contract amounts to SEK 520 M. The customer is the Swedish Rail Administration and the Swedish Road Administration in cooperation and the procurement has been handled by the Swedish Road Administration.

The contract is a part of BanaVäg (RailRoad) in Western Sweden, a cooperation project between the rail and road administrations to handle the expansion to motorway and dual rail track standards for road E45 and Norway/Lake Vänern railroad between Agnesberg and Älvängen. The investment is a part of the expansion of communications between Gothenburg and Trollhättan.

Work will be performed by Skanska Sweden and will begin in August and is scheduled to be completed in December 2012.
