Committee urges government to launch feasibility study for Tromsø access road
The Standing Committee on Transport and Communications is considering a private member's bill from Kristian August Eilertsen, Per-Willy Amundsen, and Bård Hoksrud to begin a feasibility study for the Tromsø access road project (the Eastern Malangen corridor). The committee majority from the Progress Party and Conservative Party backs the proposal, while members from the Labour Party, Centre Party, and Red Party argue it should be evaluated as part of the upcoming National Transport Plan. Red Party and Green Party members point out that the road route must be studied alongside a potential alignment for the Northern Norway railway.
