Our story

Infrastruktur i Umeå AB, INAB, was formed in 2007 to build two new travel centres along the Bothnia Line – the Umeå Östra and Hörnefors travel centres. Since then, the company has also acquired Umeå Central Station.

The idea of creating a company with responsibility for Umeå’s infrastructure was based on the municipality’s desire to avoid the financing of the Umeå Östra and Hörnefors travel centres being perceived as competing with the activities of the primary municipality – a decision made from an economically sustainable perspective.

Since its inception, INAB has, thanks to its knowledge and expertise, been responsible for several exciting construction projects in Umeå. This has broadened the focus from strictly infrastructure to more complex construction projects, where we have created added value for both Umeå residents and visitors to our city.

For example, we constructed the Navet swimming centre in Umeå and the solar-powered car park in central Umeå. And in addition to that, everything from freight yards to wagon workshops.

Many of the buildings we have constructed have remained in the company and been transferred to pure management, development and operating assignments.

We have developed in a direction that allows us to take on complex and often untested assignments where the unique expertise we possess is needed. This has also meant that our offer is constantly changing.
