It has been raining heavily for the past 24 hours. In Vännäs, the Swedish Transport Administration decided to close part of road 92 on Thursday evening, where work is being done to rebuild a bridge.
– We reinforced and dug down further before the rain, but it didn’t last. The masses of water have washed away part of the road, it could not handle the amounts that came, says Peter Jonsson.
The work on the bridge under route 92 was originally supposed to take only a few days, but now the work is dragging on.
– It is difficult to know how extensive the damage has been. The water has to run away before we can see, there was a bit of a crunch there, he says.
