St. 20 (2020–2021) Report to the Storting (white paper) National Transport Plan 2022–2033 Foreword Transport is first and foremost about people – about travelling safely and effici- ently together. In a country like Norway, with its extensive coastline, high moun- tains and long fjords, we need to connect urban and rural areas and the people who live there. We have always needed to travel and to transport goods and commodities. An efficient, environmental-friendly and safe transport system is one of the most Figure 0.1 important cornerstones of a modern soci- Knut Arild Hareide ety, and an important prerequisite for Minister of Transport value creation and welfare. Planning and building infrastructure in Norway is often both difficult and expensive. However, people must be free to live and work where they wish, and our prosperity depends on the value creation that takes place in all parts of the country. That is why we must maintain and develop a transport system that is capa- ble of connecting all parts of the country together. To succeed we must keep up with and encourage technological advances and dare to think differently. At the same time, we have to choose the solutions that give us the highest possible value for the public investments in transport projects. The Government has given transport high priority. Our invest- ments have led to shorter travel times on both rail and road, more fre- quent train departures, better traffic safety and positive urban devel- opment.
