Skanska has divested its 50% equity stake in the public private partnership (PPP) in Royal Papworth Hospital in Cambridge, UK, under a binding stock exchange agreement to Equitix Infrastructure 3 Limited for about £9m (about SEK110m).
Now with the divestment, Skanska has no further PPP investment operations in the UK.
Construction of the 40,000m2 specialist hospital was finished in 2019.
For the PPP project, Skanska made its original investment in 2015.
Under the PPP-contract, Skanska was responsible for design, build, finance and operations and maintenance aspects.
Post divestment of the stake, Skanska UK will continue to deliver maintenance services to the hospital.
