Trafikverket, the Swedish Transport Administration, reported that all ferry trips on road 797 are canceled due to ice obstruction, causing a very large impact on traffic. The warning was issued at 17:49 on Friday, according to Norrländska Socialdemokraten. The ferry service is expected to resume on Monday, April 27 at 12:00, but the end time is preliminary and may change with short notice.
Traffic is expected to be affected until Monday at noon. It remains unclear what caused the ice obstruction or if there are alternative routes for affected travelers. The number of passengers or vehicles impacted has not been confirmed, and it is unknown whether any effort is underway to clear the ice.
