Midway between Stockholm and Uppsala, in the area around Stockholm Arlanda Airport, a new city is taking shape. This new city will play a critical role for growth in the Stockholm region and Sweden. Worksites for 50,000 people are planned here. The location is hard to beat, since companies that set up operations here will be connected to the strongest growing region in the country – while having the rest of the country and world around the corner.
As globalisation accelerates, people from different parts of the world will travel more. This means that airports around the globe will be hubs for growth and jobs. In order for the area around Stockholm Arlanda Airport to be at the cutting edge, property development in the area is progressing at full speed.
A new neighbourhood alongside the motorway is taking shape. Neighbourhoods on the edge of Stockholm and Uppsala are expanding, and businesses are set to launch new operations. The focus is on meetings, creativity, research and technology to meet the needs of tomorrow.
Construction has begun on a new office complex around Sky City. The plans include an attractive cityscape featuring oases in the form of parks and green spaces. Room is provided here for meetings between people.
A key element in a vibrant city airport is the diversity that characterises the atmosphere at an airport. We believe that companies setting up operations in Airport City Stockholm will see how distances in Sweden, a long country stretching north to south, will become shorter.
The areas of Airport City Stockholm are rapidly developing, taking their starting point in the operations already set up in each area. We find everything here, from a vibrant city centre with offices and restaurants to areas featuring business development, research and education. Other areas are dedicated to cargo and logistics operations.
Airport City Stockholm is taking shape in a partnership between Swedavia, the Municipality of Sigtuna and Arlandastad Holding AB. The aim is to have a city located close to Stockholm Arlanda Airport, railways and motorways that creates opportunities for people to meet, for careers to advance and for companies to develop.
Using all available know-how, we are designing an energy- and resource-efficient airport city with a modern infrastructure, green spaces and well-planned mass transit. Naturally, it will be possible to have all of Airport City Stockholm certified for sustainability – since a new city is being built, we can do things right, from the very beginning.
