E6 Highway Near Landskrona Plagued by Potholes, Repaving Scheduled for March 12

Key Points
  • The E6 highway between Landskrona and Glumslöv has significant frost damage and potholes requiring repaving.
  • Repaving work is scheduled for March 12, 2026, following previous repairs in 2005, 2013, and 2021.
  • The problems may originate from old concrete foundations from the 1960s construction that were crushed and covered with asphalt.

The E6 highway between Landskrona and Glumslöv in southern Sweden is reportedly filled with frost damage and potholes, according to Helsingborgs Dagblad. The road section, which has been repaved multiple times in recent years including in 2005, 2013, and 2021, is scheduled for another repaving on March 12, 2026.

The highway was originally built in the 1960s, with the section between Borgeby and Lundåkra inaugurated in June 1965. According to the report, the current problems may stem from old concrete foundations beneath the asphalt surface. When the road was originally updated from concrete to asphalt decades ago, the concrete slabs were crushed and asphalt was laid on top. An informed source suggests to Helsingborgs Dagblad that this underlying concrete may be causing the current issues on the E6 between Landskrona and Glumslöv, as well as on the E6 between Malmö and Vellinge.

The persistent road damage highlights ongoing infrastructure challenges in the region, with similar issues reported on other major roads in Skåne following recent cold weather.
