The Partihall Link, Sweden

Sweden’s second city, Gothenburg, is the meeting point of many of the main highways that make up western Sweden’s transport network. Traffic conditions here have been a long-term environmental and safety problem, with adverse impacts on business and the local population, and consequently for regional development.

The Partihall Link, Sweden

The Tingsstad Tunnel under the city’s river is a major traffic bottleneck in peak hours.

The Partihall Link is a solution intended to relieve this Tunnel and improve safety and access to the section of Gothenburg’s traffic system that has been burdened with the most severe traffic problems. The Link will comprise a six-lane motorway, three interchanges, tunnels, including a tunnel under the river, and multiple bridges.

The Partihall Link will interconnect the E20 motorway, Highway 45 and the E6 Motorway, while also creating an opportunity to redirect traffic from the local street system to these major trunk roads.

The Swedish National Road Administration commissioned WSP to conduct the highways survey and prepare the project programme for the whole scheme, plus construction documentation for the Partihall Link.
