The stadium is located a 1.2 kilometer (about 0.75 miles) walk from the Solna commuter train station (about six km (3,7 miles) from Stockholm Central Station) and has parking for 300 buses and 4,000 cars. Along with the stadium, there will also be built a number of hotels (400 rooms), restaurants (8,000 guests), shopping mall (240 shops), office areas for 10,000 employees, conference/exhibition centres and 2,000 flats. The mall is planned to be called Mall of Scandinavia and will be the biggest shopping centre constructed in Sweden. The total project is calculated to cost more than 4 billion SEK.
Travel by public transport to the arena is available by commuter rail to the Solna station, or the Tvärbanan tramway (under construction until 2013) also to the Solna station, or by local bus routes; although all details have not yet been fully determined.

Famous quotes containing the words points of, points and/or interest:
“The dominant metaphor of conceptual relativism, that of differing points of view, seems to betray an underlying paradox. Different points of view make sense, but only if there is a common co-ordinate system on which to plot them; yet the existence of a common system belies the claim of dramatic incomparability.”
—Donald Davidson (b. 1917)
“He is the best sailor who can steer within the fewest points of the wind, and extract a motive power out of the greatest obstacles. Most begin to veer and tack as soon as the wind changes from aft, and as within the tropics it does not blow from all points of the compass, there are some harbors which they can never reach.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I cannot assent to a measure which stains our credit. We must keep that untainted. We are a debtor nation. Low rates of interest on the vast indebtedness we must carry for many years, is the important end to be kept in view. Expediency and justice both demand honest coinage.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
