The reason why traffic will be diverted at night is to make it easier to install barriers and railings.

The sections affected are Morgendal-Sörstafors and Eriksberg-Västjädra.

On the sections Köping-Morgendal and Sörstafors-Eriksberg, work will only begin in 2023.

There will also be blasting works, they will start during week 33. During the blasting, traffic will be stopped for about ten minutes.

Blasting will be able to take place Monday-Friday, 11am-2pm.
