Skanska selected for New Jersey Surface Alignment Project in New Jersey, USA for USD 454M, about SEK 4.3 billion
Skanska, in a joint venture with Creamer Sanzari, has been selected by the Gateway Development Commission to build the USD 712M New Jersey Surface Alignment Project (Package 3) as part of the Hudson Tunnel Project in Secaucus and North Bergen, New Jersey, USA. Skanska will include its share of the contract worth USD 454M, about SEK 4.3 billion, in the U.S. order bookings for the second quarter of 2026.
The design-build project will construct 7,540 feet (about 2,200 meters) of new infrastructure that will enable the new passenger rail tunnel to connect to the existing Northeast Corridor (NEC), supporting long-term reliability and enabling expanded capacity along one of the nation’s busiest passenger rail corridors.
The scope of work includes the design and construction of retaining walls with fill on deep foundations, a railroad bridge over Secaucus Road, a pile-supported viaduct with steel and concrete superstructure over wetlands, and a railroad bridge crossing the New York, Susquehanna and Western Railway and Conrail freight railroads.
Work is slated to commence in June 2026 with completion planned by 2030.
