– Together with the police, we have good experience from the closure from previous years when we closed the left lane on the E4. Motorists have respected the overtaking ban and traffic has flowed smoothly, says Emil Samuelsson, traffic engineer at the Swedish Transport Administration in a press release.
The overtaking lanes on the stretch between Gävle and Tönnebro are closed at the following times:
• For northbound traffic, Wednesday 27 March and Maundy Thursday 28, from 1 pm to 10 pm.
• For southbound traffic, Easter Sunday, March 31 and Easter Monday, April 1, from 13:00 to 22:00.
The overtaking ban may end earlier in the evenings if traffic decreases.
