Beschreibung

The proposed project concerns the construction of two new road sections of the E18 Eastern corridor in Oestfold County, southeast of Oslo, a 2-lane dual carriageway section between Akershus county border and Momarken and a 2-lane single carriageway road section between Momarken and Oerje. The E18 is one of the most important trunk roads in southern Norway and of major importance in linking the capital of Oslo with Kristiansand on the Western stretch and with Stockholm on the Eastern stretch.

Ziele

The project would be a further operation on transport corridors between Norway and EU following previous roads projects including sections on the E6, E18 and in the Oslo area. The project is expected to improve safety and reduce the number of accidents as well as to reduce vehicle operating costs and provide time saving to the users.
