NCC to construct correctional facility in Kristianstad
NCC is partnering with Intea to construct a new correctional facility in Vä, just outside Kristianstad, for the tenant, the Swedish Prison and Probation Service. The parties have jointly designed and planned the project, which is now transitioning to the construction phase. The project is a turnkey contract in partnering form with an order value of approximately SEK 650 million.

“Correctional facilities are complex projects in which many functions must be contained within a limited space. We are addressing several challenges in this project, such as the short timeframe for construction and the great consideration that must be shown for ongoing activities. NCC has experience and knowledge from several similar high-security projects, from which we bring valuable experience to Vä,” says Niklas Sparw, Head of NCC Building Sweden.
NCC’s assignment involves constructing a new correctional facility with almost 200 spaces and separate buildings for inmate activities, wellness, visiting areas and staff areas, totaling 11,000 square meters. The buildings are largely modular, thereby enabling a high pace of construction. The new correctional facility is being built next to the existing facility in Vä.
NCC has extensive experience of completing high-security projects and has a team of experts that is dedicated to such assignments. For these projects, particularly high requirements are imposed on advanced security solutions, technical expertise, special logistics and secure information management throughout all phases of the project.
The project will commence in the third quarter of 2025 and is scheduled to be completed in 2026. The order value is approximately SEK 650 million and will be registered in the NCC Building Sweden business area in the third quarter of 2025.
