NCC to Build Framnäsbadet Swim Center in Lidköping Under SEK 680 Million Contract

NCC has been commissioned by Lidköping Municipality to construct the Framnäsbadet swim center, a turnkey partnering contract with an order value of approximately SEK 680 million. The project also includes an option for an outdoor facility, news.cision.com reported on October 27, 2026.

Framnäsbadet Replaces 1970s Facility

The new swim center will replace the municipality's previous facility dating back to the 1970s. The three-story building features an eight-lane 25-meter-long swimming pool, two multifunction pools with adjustable floors, a family pool with slides and play areas, and a diving pool. The contract includes an option for an outdoor swimming pool adjacent to the center.

"During the design phase, NCC has partnered with Lidköping Municipality to develop solutions that help reduce the facility's operating costs. We are now building a modern, resource-efficient facility with ambitious goals for the future," said Niklas Sparw, Head of NCC Building Sweden.

The Framnäsbadet swim center forms part of the ongoing development of the Framnäs area in Lidköping. NCC has previously helped shape the harbor area, having delivered both a waterfront promenade and a beach park. NCC is currently conducting nine swim center projects across Sweden, and has delivered a total of 21 projects in Sweden since 2010, all handed over on time, with the right quality and at the agreed-upon cost.

Production will commence in the fourth quarter of 2026 and completion is scheduled for the end of 2029. A groundbreaking ceremony is planned for November. The order value will be registered among orders in the NCC Building Sweden business area in the fourth quarter of 2026.
