Traffic and access restrictions lifted on Monday

The traffic and access restrictions for Road 300 and Sverdrupbyen will be lifted today, Monday 2 November, at 10:30.

The restrictions were introduced on 29 October due to the risk of rockfall or rockslides from Platåberget.

Road reopens

The lifting of the restrictions means that Road 300, from the junction with Road 501 and southwards to Sverdrupbyen, is open again. Access to the area around Sverdrupbyen is also permitted.
