Skanska secures two contracts worth $112.6M in Boston

ConDig (12-Jun-19).  Swedish developer and contractor Skanska has bagged two contracts in Boston, Massachusetts, worth a total of $112.6 million.

The largest of the two deals is a $67 million contract to build a canopy over the Terminal C departures level at Logan International Airport.

Under the deal with the Massachusetts Port Authority, Skanska will expand and infill the departures upper-level curbside deck, improve and enlarge the pick-up and drop-off areas at Terminal C departures and arrivals plazas. 

The project also includes the demolition of the existing canopy, removal of two existing elevators and the installation of three new elevators. The scope also features the construction of pick-up and drop-off areas on the ground floor of the central and west parking garages and structural floors in the footprints of the old elevator shafts.

Construction is slated to begin in November 2019 and is scheduled to be complete by late 2021.

Skanska has also netted a $45.6 million deal for an emergency department expansion and renovation at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital in the city. 

The first phase will feature the expansion into about 2,300 square meters of space adjacent to the emergency department, while the second and third phases include the demolition and reconfiguration of the existing emergency department. There will also be major upgrades to the power and heating and ventilating systems throughout the hospital.

Construction started in March and is earmarked for completion by late 2021.

It comes as Skanska said it had signed a $101 million contract this week to build a four-lane highway with freeway connectors on State Route 905 in San Diego, California.

In April, Skanska secured a $88 million contract to revamp an industrial manufacturing facility in the Midwest. It also netted a $69 million deal to demolish and replace Lakeridge Junior High School in Oregon.

Skanska inked a $57 million deal to rebuild the headquarters of global manufacturer Jabil Inc in St. Petersburg, Florida.

It followed a $45 million deal to build and renovate schools in Ohio secured by the contractor in March.

Skanska also unveiled that it had landed a $48 million contract to build a manufacturing facility in the western region of the US.
