– It is important that Sørfold is informed that Nye Veier’s proposal for a minimal solution is completely unacceptable and only suitable for training.
This is what Mayor Gisle Hansen (Sp) in Sørfold says in a press release.
On Wednesday, the party leader of the Center Party, Trygve Slagsvold, visits Vedum Sørfold and Hamarøy. In this sense, the mayor of Sørfold will draw attention to the headache of the municipality; E6.
– Must have priority
Both the Salten Regional Council and the Nordland County Municipality prioritize the Fauske-Bognes section for the National Transportation Plan.
– Sørfold tunnels should be prioritized with a complete solution, says Hansen.
After finishing the visit to Straumen, Slagsvold Vedum will experience the challenges along the E6, when the Stoklands AS company from Hamarøy introduces the heavy transport and driver Arnfinn Vangen on the journey north.
In Hamarøy, Mayor Britt Kristoffersen (Sp) agreed to a company visit to The Quartz Corp. The municipality wants to facilitate the company that produces ultra-pure quartz, expanding a container port at the ISPS dock in Drag.
Significant amount of goods
According to Kristoffersen, this will move a significant amount of goods from the highway to the sea and reduce heavy transport on the E6 by 40 trucks per week.
As a new municipality fused with an unsettled economy, it is demanding funding for measures that can facilitate commercial and local jobs, says the mayor of Hamarøy.
– I want to make it clear that Hamarøy has many opportunities, but that there are also challenges in being a merged municipality and that we need additional attention to be successful.
