The accident happened at Sundvollen and the E16 is closed on the spot. The road will probably be closed for a long time. – We have forensic experts on site who are investigating the circumstances. We have also asked the road traffic center to find alternative driving routes, says operations manager Aaser. There is a detour on Åsaveien around Steinfjorden, but here there are long queues and stoppages in traffic. The Norwegian Public Roads Administration therefore asks people to avoid the stretch if possible. Alternative detours are via Drammen and Vikersund, or via Gardermoen and Jevnaker.
