Road 97, Södra Sunderbyn–Sävast, 2+1 dual carriageway

The project aimed at increasing traffic safety and service level between Södra Sunderbyn and Sävast has begun. The stretch will be rebuilt into a 2+1 dual carriageway. The work began in March 2020 and will be completed by autumn 2022. At that time, the entire stretch between Luleå and Boden will be a dual carriageway.

While rebuilding the 12-kilometre long stretch we will do the following:
*Widen the road along most of the stretch
*Build a central divider
*Build three new junctions: Norra Sunderbyn, Sävastnäs and Sävastön
*Build a new parallel road network alongside road 97
*Close approximately 70 at-grade junctions with road 97
*Build three grade-separated routes for outdoor activities
*Build new, safer bus stops
*Build noise barriers
