The E4 highway between Ljungby and Värnamo in Sweden has been completely closed in the northbound direction following a truck fire, according to SVT Nyheter. The incident occurred near Hallsjö in the direction toward Värnamo, with traffic being rerouted by Trafikverket, Sweden's transport administration. The fire reportedly started shortly after lunchtime on February 27, 2026, and has since been extinguished.
The closure is expected to remain in effect until Friday evening, with authorities estimating the highway will reopen around 8 PM as recovery operations to remove the damaged truck continue. Motorists are advised to seek alternative routes and follow traffic diversion signs posted by Trafikverket.
