Fixing Stockholm's Southern Traffic Chaos

Therese Lindström (M) has questioned Traffic Commissioner Lars Strömgren (MP) about traffic chaos in southern Stockholm, criticizing the simultaneous large roadworks at Gullmarsplan, Skansbron, and Johanneshov, which cause long queues and increased emissions. Strömgren responded that disruptions are hard to avoid in major projects, but the Traffic Office coordinates efforts intensely, citing worker safety for Skansbron's one-way traffic, and promises to learn from traffic flow measurements. Capacity at Johanneshov is expected by late 2025, and Skansbron will fully reopen by December 9, 2025.
