Planning and Construction Work

The construction of the New Karolinska Solna University Hospital (NKS) started in the summer of 2010. You can find out more about how the construction will proceed in the near term below.

Construction area and construction stages
The construction of the NKS will be carried out in a number of different building stages. On 17 November 2010, the entrance to the Thorax Building was modified as shown below. Ever since then, it is no longer possible to access the Main hospital buildning from Solnavägen by car; access is only possible via Karolinska vägen.

The current construction area is divided into two parts, a smaller area called Oljeberget to the north of Thorax and a larger area, to the south of Thorax that extends from Solnavägen in the west, to the hospital grounds in the east and the E4/E20 in the south.
