Easing traffic on Skanstullsbron bridge

A motion by Therese Lindström (M) proposes permanently opening a northbound lane on Skanstullsbron to car traffic to reduce queues and ease commuting between Hammarby Sjöstad, southern Stockholm, and Södermalm. However, the Södermalm district administration lacks the expertise to assess traffic flows but stresses that any traffic solution must align with the city's Accessibility Strategy, which prioritizes high-capacity transport and increased reliability for all road users. The administration notes that the ongoing reconstruction of Skansbron, which caused current traffic issues, is nearing completion and will soon see two-way traffic resume.
