According to Peter Bäckman at Svealandstrafiken, the slippage on the roads in Sala municipality is so troublesome that they have chosen to cancel all traffic.

However, no serious incidents have been reported, apart from a bus in Virsbo that slid off the road and had to be rescued from the scene.

- We want to get the traffic going as soon as possible and monitor the weather continuously, says Peter Bäckman.

No forecast

There is currently no forecast as to when traffic can resume again.

- As soon as the anti-slip control is effective enough or there are changes in the weather conditions that make the roads passable again, we will release the traffic, says Peter Bäckman at Svealandstrafiken.

Line 569 between Sala and Västerås runs as usual.
