The new recommendations apply on weekdays at 7-9 and 16-18.

Children born after the year 2004 are not covered by the requirement.

Those who travel by local transport in Skellefteå must bring their own mouthguard on the bus.

When SVT news goes out in the morning traffic, it turns out that it is a bit so and so with the knowledge that there are new recommendations that apply today, but even those who did not know still have mouth guards in their pockets.

- I think it is about half who are wearing and it is still good like this the first day, says for example Erica Birgersson.

New downtown stop for local traffic

In Skellefteå, however, travelers had a little something else to check out today as well.

As of today, Skellefteå buss has moved the center stop for local traffic from Kanalgatan to Stationsgatan.

This means that all incoming and outgoing local traffic with lines 1,2,3,4,8 and 9 gets a new stop, and it was one and the other who had to think twice to get it right.

The bus company therefore had hosts on site to help.

- This is a permanent solution that is significantly better than the current one on Kanalgatan, comments CEO Marie Larsson.

In the clip, SVT talks news with bus drivers with and without mouth guards.
