This was discovered when a passenger car almost drove into the hole just before 05.30, but managed.
The sinkhole must be 70 centimeters deep and three meters in diameter, according to the rescue service. They were alerted to the scene and during the morning directed traffic and blocked off parts of the roundabout.
Disturbances in traffic
Borlänge Energi has taken over the matter, which according to the rescue service has turned off the water and put up signs so that no motorists should go down the hole.
– There will certainly be excavation work during the day to find the leak and do something about it. There will probably be traffic disruptions at the site today, says an officer at the Dala Mitt Rescue Service.
