Uppsala is expanding rapidly and has high ambitions regarding urban development. We rank as one of Sweden's four major cities with over 240,000 inhabitants, and one of the goals is for the municipality to grow to 350,000 inhabitants by 2050. We actively work with urban densification and have distinguished ourselves as one of the country's leading municipalities in how we work with land allocations, where we seriously challenge ourselves and the construction industry. The result is that we, together with a growing number of builders, contribute to an attractive and varied urban environment.

The Project & Contracting unit consists of about 70 people distributed across several units. Within the area, we work together on behalf of the street and community environment committee, and we are responsible for planning and constructing the municipality's streets, parks, and natural areas. The contracting unit carries out construction and water and sewage projects, such as playgrounds, streets, pedestrian and bicycle paths, water and sewage works, and more.
