Environmental requirements in contracts

Here you find a description of environmental requirements in construction contracts for the cities of Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö, and Trafikverket. Based on a common agreement, they focus on reducing the environmental and climate impact of contracts.

For contracts where the client is the Swedish Transport Administration, certain adaptations and additions to the requirements have been made such as site- and object-specific requirements. Adapted or added requirements are stated in the tender specifications.

The cities of Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö and the Swedish Transport Administration have together produced a joint guidance to the requirements.

Other cities or municipalities can favourably use the requirements in their procurements and refer to the guidance if this is accepted by the respective committee and/or city council.
