Lots of queues

It is not certain that a car is the best option. Because work is still underway on a number of important methods. State Highway Authority announces that work is in progress on the E6 in Abildsø, and that the estimated time for completion is 10.00 Monday morning.

There are problems at Strømsveien (RV 159) in Knattenkrysset. The Swedish Road Administration hopes everything will be finished by 09.00 am on Monday.

South of Oslo, Skiveien (Fv. 152) is closed due to flooding. Hopefully it will open at 10 am on Monday.

In Haukito, Kommunevei 155 is closed, possibly until August 30.

There is work in Lommedalen in Fv. 1618 in Nidri Hauge. The hope is to finish before the Monday morning rush hour.

In the Drammens area, the E134 is closed between the Steinbergveien bridge in Drammen and the Loe bridge in Øvre Eiker, while the district road 2708 Mjøndalen in the direction of Mjøndalen is closed.

Drammen hires emergency staff

High water levels are expected in Drammen, and the municipality fears that the situation could be worse than it was after severe weather in Hans.

Therefore, the municipality formed a crisis team.

– The flood protection created along the Dramnsylva River is designed to handle a flood level of 3.5 meters above the water level in the fjord, but the water level is expected to reach this level. At worst, this means that flood protection is not sufficient to prevent water from flowing into residential areas, the municipality wrote on its pages.

Nesbin also appointed emergency staff after another flood occurred on Sunday.

Trouble training in several places

Payne Nur said the train runs only 20 minutes to and from Oslo Airport due to flooding in parts of Oslo S. A new update was announced on Monday at 12 noon.

Also in Hauketu in Oslo, flooding causes problems and leads to delays and cancellations due to the reduced number of tracks being used. This affects Østfoldbanen. In Eidsvoll, the situation is the same.

Sørlandsbanen closed at 6.30am on Monday between Mjøndalen and Gulskogen due to flooding. The prognosis for reopening is uncertain.

Bergensbanen is closed between Geilo and Joule due to the presence of large amounts of water. Here, a new update was announced at 9 pm on Monday.
