Peab has been commissioned to build a new swimming pool in Gislaved. The customer is Gislaved Municipality and the contract is worth SEK 320 million.
The new swimming pool facility is being built in the Gisle area and will replace the municipality's three existing swimming pools. It will have a capacity of about 150,000 visits per year and will be able to daily accommodate several school classes and large groups. The facility will be a modern meeting place that will promote exercise and wellness in the municipality's residents, with a particular focus on children and young people.
"We’re very happy and proud to be involved in the construction of Gislaved's new swimming pool facility. With our experience of complex swimming pool projects we look forward to working with the municipality to create a modern and sustainable facility that will be a natural meeting place for people of all ages," says Fredrik Granström Leo, Region Manager Peab.
"It feels great to now be able to take the next step in the project. Through our first-rate collaboration with Peab during the planning phase, we have created a solid foundation for the work ahead. We’re looking forward to moving on to the implementation phase now and seeing the new Gisle Swimming Pool take shape," says Peter Gillgard, Project Manager for Gislaved Municipality.
The project will be carried out as a turnkey contract in partnering. This construction contract was preceded by a so-called phase 1 contract where Peab was contracted to work with the customer to find an optimized product with the right quality and to manage risks and uncertainties. The project is now entering phase 2, which is the implementation phase.
Construction is scheduled to start in August 2026 and the project is expected to be completed in June 2029.
The project will be order registered in business area Construction in the second quarter 2026.
