E6 is again closed through Snåsa. This is the third time since mid-March that Europavegen has been closed in the same city. Last night there was a 30-40 meter wide landslide at the northern end of Snåsavatnet. A few kilometers north of Snåsakroa. – This is the main traffic route through Norway. The fact that it is dangerous to drive on it is not good, says mayor Arnt Einar Bardal in Snåsa.

Now he gets a detour in an hour and a half. – Geologist will come to the city in a few hours, Bjørnar Gaasvik told news at 05.30. He is the operations leader in Trøndelag police district. New assessment will be made at. 12 Friday. Detour is via county road 763 on the south side of the lake. Landslide over Meråkerbanen There has also been a landslide in Stjørdal. There were several landslides in Meådal late Thursday night. One of the landslides crossed the Meråker line, while two smaller landslides crossed the E14, Gaasvik states. The landslide over the railway will be ten meters wide. In any case, the section was closed to train traffic due to work on the line on the Swedish side of the border. It will be closed until 31 July. Earlier in the evening, it was reported that the river at Flornes in Stjørdal was so large that it crossed the E14.

Photo: Bjarte Johannesen / news Afraid it will go to life The landslide last night on the E6 in Snåsa is the third side in mid-March that means that the road must be closed. The mayor is upset that there are constantly landslides on the road. – It is actually two kilometers of landslide-prone stretch there. Now they have to stop “climbing” in that area. Now we must get measures that are more permanent, says Bardal. He thinks the road must go in a tunnel past the landslide-exposed stretch past Langnesberga. In 2016, a tunnel was proposed in the plan for the National Transport Plan. But in a revised edition from 2021, the road section was not mentioned at all. – I’m upset about the somlinga. That we are not given priority. There are cases that mean that things have not gone so far, says Bardal. Olav Trana runs Snåsakroa close to the landslide town. Every time it rages, he loses money. – We are really desperate, he says. He has previously told news that he fears fatalities on the stretch of road. – I’m tired and weary. It is almost impossible to do business here. We did not manage to get over the one bang before a new one came, Trana said. Olav Trana despairs that there is still a rage on the E6 near the inn he runs. Photo: Tariq Alisubh / news
