What we are doing
Assignment
We are expanding and rerouting water and wastewater pipes, installing new power lines and burying fibre to the new industrial area in Svartbyn.
Project partners
The project is a collaboration between the Municipality of Boden, Boden Technical Water AB, Bodens Energi and Bodens Stadsnät together with Peab.
Route and scope
Pipelines are laid from the Lule River to Boden Industrial Park. Works take place both above ground (road adaptations) and underground (water, wastewater, electricity and fibre).
Current status
During spring and summer, areas affected by the project will be restored. Restoration mainly involves ground works, including backfilling, levelling and reinstating what was previously on site, such as soil or grass.
Current work areas
Area 1 – Pump station: Interior work is ongoing, and external ground restoration is in progress. The walking path and boat launch ramp near the pump station are closed throughout the construction period. Boat owners are referred to other ramps in the municipality.
Area 2 – Spikvägen
Area 3 – Svedjevägen and Slipvägen
Area 4 – Lorvenvägen
Traffic, noise and safety
Access and transport
More work vehicles will move to and from the sites. Access may be limited at times. Always follow signs and on-site guidance.
Vibration and noise
Excavation, drilling and rolling may cause vibration and noise for nearby homes and businesses. Vibration levels are continuously monitored to keep them within permitted limits.
Respect the work zone
For everyone’s safety, please respect barriers and signs. Unauthorised presence in the work area increases the risk of incidents and accidents. Be extra careful near operating machinery.
Working hours and service information
Regular working hours
Monday–Friday, 07:00–16:00.
Additional working hours
Some weeks, work may also take place in the evenings, at night and on weekends to streamline delivery in each area.

Technology: water and wastewater, electricity and fibre
Water and wastewater
Boden Industrial Park will be part of the municipal service area for water and sewage. New pipes are being laid to the site. There is a large need for process water. A new pump station is being built on the Lule River downstream of the Bodsvedjan wastewater treatment plant. Pipes will supply technical water (non-drinking water) taken from the Lule River. Existing pipelines in the corridor are being replaced where capacity is insufficient for the industrial park and other planned development.
Electricity and fibre
The power grid is being reinforced at the substation and at the new technical-water pump station. A trench for fibre is being dug along the entire infrastructure area to secure future digital communication. Some streets and roads will need adjustments during and after trenching.
Property owners in the area
To inform and cooperate with affected property owners, the municipality will share certain personal data with project partners: property designation, name and contact details. The purpose is effective communication and coordination during the project. Partners will have access only during the project period, after which the data returns to the municipality. Contact the project team if you have views on how we handle personal data.
