For property owners

For property owners
We have chosen the tunnel route so that as few private properties as possible are affected. You will be offered compensation if your property is sited on the tunnel route.

Compensation to property owners

Before we start building the tunnel, we will enter into land leasing agreements with the property owners who own land along the route. This land leasing agreement regulates factors such as the precise route of the tunnel and the compensation to be paid to landowners.

Property owners will receive a one-off compensation payment

If the tunnel is to be routed underneath your land, you will receive a one-off compensation payment from Stockholm Vatten och Avfall. Firstly, the value of the interference with your property will be assessed by our consultants. We will then submit a compensation offer to you. The principles of compensation are regulated in the Expropriation Act, which states that the property owner must receive a one-off compensation payment on the basis of an assessed reduction in market value, plus a supplement of 25 per cent. We will also increase that amount by 20 per cent in the land leasing agreement that we offer.

We will also pay compensation for any damage that may occur when the tunnel is built.

Land leasing agreements – how do they work?

When it is time to sign agreements, we will invite landowners affected to attend meetings, where we will notify them of the land leasing agreement. We will also inform them of the principles that control when we value and pay compensation for the tunnel's intrusion. We will get in touch with each individual landowner by post or visit them in person in order to present land leasing documents. This will include a land leasing agreement, valuation and compensation. We will always do our best to come to an agreement with landowners.

By signing a land leasing agreement, you approve construction of the tunnel across a certain section of your property. This land leasing agreement will give Stockholm Vatten och Avfall the right to build and manage the tunnel.

This agreement will regulate the terms that apply when we use the land in our capacity as the line owner. It will also regulate the applicable compensation principles for intrusion and adjustment of any claims.

Stockholm Vatten och Avfall will apply to Lantmäteriet for utility easement, taking these land leasing agreements as a basis. This utility easement will involve leasing the land for the line in perpetuity.

What happens if we do not agree?

Stockholm Vatten och Avfall will always strive to agree with the landowner on land leasing and compensation for intrusion.

If you decide not to conclude a land leasing agreement with us, the issue will be submitted to Lantmäteriet for a decision. You may also decide to sign the land leasing agreement with us without accepting the compensation we offer. In this case, we will agree on all the other terms of the agreement, and only the issue of compensation will be referred to Lantmäteriet.

FAQ

Click on the question or the plus sign to view the answer.
  • How do I know my house will not be damaged by the blasting operations?

    It is rare for buildings to be damaged by blasting operations. To make sure your house will not be affected by the tunnel, an independent inspection company will carry out thorough inspections of buildings near our operations before, during and after our work. You will receive compensation in full if our work causes any damage to your property.

  • How do I go about claiming compensation if my property is damaged?

    If you discover damage to your property after we have been blasting in your area, you can apply for compensation. An independent inspection company will then carry out an investigation into the damage in order to identify the causal link between the damage and the work done. You will be compensated in full for any damage deemed to be caused by our work.

  • What should I do if my apartment is damaged?

    To report any damage, please get in touch with us on 08 522 128 80 or send an email to framtidensavloppsrening@svoa.se. We will record the matter and send a claims adjuster from an independent inspection company to visit you. A decision will then be posted to you. You will be compensated in full for any damage deemed to be caused by our work.

  • Can I claim compensation if any of my things are destroyed by blasting operations?

    Yes, you can apply for compensation if anything you own is damaged as a result of our work; if something falls off the wall because of the vibration, for example. An independent inspection company will then carry out an investigation into the damage in order to identify the causal link between the damage and the work done. You will be compensated in full for any damage deemed to be caused by our work.

  • How will inspection work be carried out?

    All buildings and facilities that may be affected by the project will be inspected by an independent inspection company both before and after work. We will inspect all buildings within a radius of 150 metres from the tunnel construction site, Henriksdalsberget and the Sickla plant. Information about inspection work will be posted to anyone affected well ahead of time before we start work. Inspections will be carried out as close to the start of construction as possible, approximately one month before construction work may start to affect the buildings.

  • What financial compensation will I get if the tunnel is routed underneath my property?

    If the tunnel is to be routed underneath your property, you will receive a one-off compensation payment from Stockholm Vatten och Avfall. Firstly, the value of the interference with your property will be assessed. You will then receive a proposal for a land leasing agreement that regulates how much compensation you will receive. The principles of compensation are regulated in the Expropriation Act, which states that the property owner must receive compensation for interference on the basis of an assessed reduction in market value, including a supplement of 25 per cent. We will also increase that amount by 20 per cent in the land leasing agreement that we offer.

    If you decide not to conclude a land leasing agreement with us, the issue will be submitted to Lantmäteriet for a decision. You may also decide to sign the land leasing agreement without accepting the compensation we offer. In this case, we will agree on all the other terms of the agreement, and only the issue of compensation will be referred to Lantmäteriet.

  • How will my geothermal heating pump be affected by the tunnel construction work?

    Along the tunnel route there are properties with geothermal heating pumps that will be affected by the construction work. If you have a geothermal heating pump that is affected by the tunnel, we will contact you in order to investigate the extent to which your geothermal heating is affected and what compensation you should receive for this.
