The project will see 40,000 tons of ECO-Asphalt laid to provide the roads with a new surface layer.

The work encompasses deep milling and laying new binder courses along with semi-warm asphalt paving in the areas of Moliden, Edsele, Näsåker and Ramsele. The project will also include necessary earthworks like ditch cleaning, culvert replacement and road widenings where required.

“It’s always rewarding to work on projects in rural areas. Not just because we’re improving infrastructure, but also seeing how much the local residents appreciate the new roads. The understanding and appreciation from motorists makes the work so much more enjoyable,” said Björn Qvarfordt, site manager at Peab Asfalt.

Work is ongoing this year and scheduled for completion in 2025.
