NCC is selling development rights with a value of SEK 195 million to Järntorget Bostad AB for the development of about 300 housing units in the Ursvik area in the city of Sundbyberg, Stockholm.

"We are pleased to bring in another player, who will enable faster expansion of the area. With Järntorget, we have a strong player who will contribute to the continued development of Ursvik,” says Joachim Hallengren, Business Area Manager at NCC Housing.

"We are very pleased to have implemented this transaction with NCC. We now look forward to building beautiful, modern housing units in the expanding Sundbyberg area,” says Martin Arkad, President of Järntorget.
