Infrastructure
A well-developed infrastructure is one of the prerequisites for sustainable development throughout the county. The role of infrastructure is to enable good accessibility for both residents and businesses.
Our advocacy issues
The Norrbotten Region has several impact issues in the infrastructure area, which the Regional Development Committee has decided on. They concern:
Increased capacity on the Ore Railway , with the ability to run heavier transports and better reliability for both freight and passenger traffic.
Double track on the Boden-Luleå train route . The route will be a bottleneck in the green transition. There is already a capacity shortage and passenger traffic has been limited in order for freight traffic to function. When the port of Luleå is fully developed, the pressure there will increase.
Rapid completion of the entire Norrbotten Line . Region Norrbotten wants to see measures to intensify planning and construction. The region is asking for a target year for completion of the entire line.
The accessibility and safety of the E10 . The green industrial development involves major investments in the Ore Fields and the E10 is an important and only link for road transport.
Connection of the Haparanda Line to the Finnish railway network.
Ensure the function and capacity of the main line.
