| Skanska and Costain build Crossrail station in London Skanska, the Nordic region's biggest builder, and Britain's Costain have been awarded the Crossrail Paddington Station project. The project will be undertaken in a 50/50 joint venture. The contract value is about GBP 150 M with Skanska's share amounting to GBP 75 M, about SEK 770 M. The new Crossrail Paddington station will be the first station contract to be awarded as part of the Crossrail program to connect east and west London. The new station has been designed to maximize space while preserving the historical features of the main line station Paddington.
