Closed roads and canceled trains – news Vestland

Vy has canceled trains on the Bergen Railway overnight until Thursday and throughout the day due to the extreme weather that is ravaging the region. There are therefore no trains between Oslo and Bergen, nor between Voss and Bergen. This also applies to Flåmsbana. Several county roads were closed early on Thursday as a precaution. The following roads are now closed in Vestland: Riksveg 13 Stana, between Odda and Lofthus is closed after a rock slide between the Skarvabjørg tunnel and the Stana tunnel. Fv. 5198 in Sædalen in Bergen is closed due to flooding. fv. 49 Nordrepollen – Austrepollen. fv. 55 – Sognefjellet fv. 609 Førde – Askvoll. fv. 5110 at Tveitnes in Øvre Hålandsdalen. fv. 5600 Vik – Framfjorden. fv. 5602 Vangsnes – Fresvik. fv. 5623 Gudvangen – Bakka. fv. 5625 Aurland – Skjærdal. fv. 5627 The shield – Urnes. fv. 5637 Luster. fv. 5720 Djupedalen in Stryn. Midjevegen in Aurland and the road to Bakka and Skjerdal. It is unknown how long national highway 13 in Stana in Hardanger will be closed, after large boulders fell and blocked the road. – It is not a problem to remove the stones, but the danger is that there may be more. That’s why we’re only keeping the road closed, says traffic operator Jørgen Bødtker at the Vegtrafikksentralen in the west. This is the situation in Møre and Romsdal There are currently no reports of damage related to the extreme weather in Møre and Romsdal, but that is where the most rain has been reported. The following county roads are now closed in Møre and Romsdal: fv. 5296 Eidsdal and Norddal fv. 5912 Festøya ferry quay in Ørsta to Standal ferry quay. Flooded road stops motorists on local roads in Bergen Hjortlandsveien in Åsane in Bergen is flooded and makes it difficult for residents in the area to get out by car. – I don’t dare. It’s not worth it. This is the critical point here in the valley, says electric motorist Magnus Reitan. Hjortlandsveien in Åsane in Bergen is one of the vegan routes that is now difficult to get past the bodies of water.

But I don’t do that with an electric car, it will be far too expensive, says Reitan. He was not fully prepared for the local flooding, but has experienced it in the past. – Last time we were lucky, because then my wife was leaving work and I was going to work. So then we washed over and changed cars, he smiles. Hybrid motorist tries to close Bus driver Rune Einvik wants to go home and go to bed after the night shift, and tries to drive the hybrid car through the bodies of water. – They come and push if it doesn’t work, he jokes. Lots of leaves and other things prevent water from getting down the grates along the road. Workers from Løvaas Maskin are working to remove it. – There is far too much water coming from the mountain, and so much boss that we have to stand the whole time and open again, says Arnoldas Dedura. He says that his colleagues are all over Bergen today. – There is probably a lot of chaos in Indre Arna, he thinks. Published 31.10.2024, at 11.28 Updated 31.10.2024, at 11.44
