- It is very important that the government establishes a new national plan for the next four years.
We at the Swedish Transport Administration think the decision is good and it creates conditions for us to continue planning and expanding the Swedish infrastructure, says Rami Yone's regional director in Region East.
Of the 881 billion, 165 billion will go to the operation and maintenance of the Swedish railways.
Here are also the new double tracks that will be built between Linköping and Järna, which is part of Ostlänken and the main line.
An investigation to investigate the conditions for a partial electrification of the Stångådal and Tjust lines will also be given priority.
197 billion to the road network
The investments in the railway focus on increasing accessibility and shortening travel times.
When it comes to road projects, the emphasis is on increasing safety and improving accessibility.
Highway 50 between Nykyrka and Brattebro, north of Motala, will be a meeting-free road and the E22 past Söderköping will also be meeting-free but also redirected to go southwest of the current E22.
Both are included in the national plan that the government presented today.
