Around 30 cars pass every day, if the ferry closes, there will be a detour of 20 km.
But so far the water stays within the ferry's margins.
If it rises further, it will be difficult to keep the traffic going.
- Now we have to keep an eye on the wire drums, so that the wires do not become too short.
It's a light ferry.
But we have six meters of wire until we can slacken out.
Only when the water level in Glafsfjorden becomes 47.60 does it start to become danger and travel.
Tommy Andersson, commander of Byälvan, agrees.
- If there are ten centimeters more, it will be a problem to get into the position with the ferry.
Now we are probably saved by the cold, the water stops rising if there is no more rain.
The last time the ferry at Högsäter had to close was at high tide twenty years ago.
