Skanska has signed an additional contract with UNC Health (UNCH) for the construction of a new medical office building and parking deck in North Carolina, USA, as the start of a new greenfield medical campus. The additional contract is worth USD 68M, about SEK 630M, which will be included in the US order bookings for the third quarter of 2026.
