Norwegian High Speed Railway Assessment Phase 3, Corridor East 12 Norwegian High Speed Railway Assessment Phase 3, corridor east 12. December 2011 Presented by Svein Sørheim Sections / alignments in corridor east Corridor east: • Oslo - Stockholm • Oslo - Göteborg • Oslo - Drammen 2 Existing infrastructure in corridor east Existing railways: • Existing tracks often have poor alignment and technical standard • The lines are mainly single track and with limited capacity • In Sweden the standard of existing lines are generally higher In practice very little of the existing tracks can be re-used when constructing new lines, especially for high speed railways. Use of ”existing" lines: • Assuming the use of Romeriksporten and that Oslo-Ski will be built • Requires the use of the existing railway Västerås - Stockholm and new railway Öxnered - Gøteborg • In the 2*-alternatives some sections of newer double track may be used; Ski - Moss and Såstad - Haug 3 Main challenges in corridor east • Managing the IC-strategy in relation to a high speed railway • The alignment challenges in the Fredrikstad - Sarpsborg area • To define the high speed alignment trough or close to existing built-up areas • Routes in Sweden • Identify feasible / realistic routes with accepable consequences for the local environment. 4 The Norconsult study approach The innovation process Criteria during coarse evaluation • Idea generation and • Short travel time user meetings • Low operation- and investmentcosts • Has created knowledge • Good accessibility/biggest possible and alternative passenger base alignments • Limited consequences for landscape, • Created common base nature, culture, etc. • Subsequent coarse • Good posibility for staged construction evaluation and screening 5 Alt. 2*: Lillestrøm - Karlstad (via Kongsvinger) • Alternative 2* is a new double track along the existing line via Kongsvinger - Charlottenberg to Arvika and Karlstad • All alternatives towards Stockholm are identical from Arvika to Karlstad and Västerås (standard 2*) 6 Alt. 2*: Lillestrøm - Blaker • New line will use Gardermobanen out of Lillestrøm • Several challenges at Lillestrøm; Nordre Øyern nature reserve, nature environment at Leira, etc • Crossing of the river Glomma 7 Alt. 2*: Skarnes - Kongsvinger • New alignment south of Skarnes due to track geometry requirements • Through Kongsvinger the new line will mainly follow the existing alignment and the present location of the station will be used.

  • Höghastighetståg Oslo–Karlstad– Stockholm
    C Enskild motion Motion till riksdagen 2017/18:1495 av Daniel Bäckström (C) Höghastighetståg Oslo–Karlstad– Stockholm Förslag till riksdagsbeslut Riksdagen ställer sig bakom det som anförs i motionen om att ta ytterligare initiativ som utvecklar det svensk-norska samarbetet för planläggning och projektering av en driftssäker och snabb järnvägsförbindelse där resan tar högst tre timmar mellan Oslo och Stockholm, och detta tillkännager riksdagen för regeringen. Motivering Arbetet med att stärka tågens betydelse, kapacitet och konkurrenskraft pågår i såväl Norge som Sverige. Det genomförs projekt och utredningar för att analysera och beskriva förutsättningarna för investeringar i olika stråk och korridorer, på kort och lång sikt. Engagemanget och samarbetet mellan regionerna har stärkts de senaste åren och det har bildats bolag Oslo–Stockholm 2.5 AB i syfte att påskynda utbyggnaden av bättre tågtrafik mellan Oslo och Stockholm. Allt fler offentliga och privata aktörer lyfter nu betydelsen av en snabb järnvägsförbindelse och intresset ökar bland investerare och företag. Analyser som gjorts visar att sträckan har unika förutsättningar att vara en samhällsekonomisk investering. 16 företag från nio länder har haft ett första arbetsmöte i Örebro för att diskutera intäktsmodeller, finansieringsmodeller och modell för samverkan mellan företag, kommun och stat. Behovet av investeringar i infrastruktur är betydligt större än vad som kan göras med statlig anslagsfinansiering. Det är därför positivt att fler aktörer engagerar sig i frågan och ser betydelsen av att bygga infrastruktur som stärker den norsk-svenska arbetsmarknaden, ökar företagskontakterna, investeringarna och pendlingen. Sträckan Oslo–Karlstad–Stockholm är den mest intressanta när det gäller möjligheterna att få fler att resa med tåg istället för flyg, då ökningstakten är mycket högre på denna sträcka jämfört med till exempel Stockholm–Köpenhamn eller Oslo– Köpenhamn.

  • Relocation of Government Agencies (Rir 2009:30)
    AUDIT REPORT, SUMMARY 1 Summary Relocation of government agencies (RiR 2009:30) SWEDISH NATIONAL AUDIT OFFICE SUMMARY 1 DATE: 16-12-2009 Relocation of government agencies Riksrevisionen (the Swedish National Audit Office) has examined the effects of the relocations of government agencies that were carried out to compensate regions for the disbandment of military units as a result of the 2004 defence-policy review. We ask the following questions in our audit: Did the regions obtain full compensation for disbandment through the relocations? Have the operations of the agencies recovered? And were the costs in line with expectations? Even though several waves of agency relocations have taken place in Sweden over several decades, no overall evaluation has been made of this issue. Hence nobody knows for certain whether the regions where new jobs were created as a result of, say, the disbandment of military units actually received compensation in full. 2,700 jobs were to be relocated Several regions were affected by the disbandment or relocation of military units as a result of the 2004 defence-policy review. The Riksdag (parliament) therefore decided to take measures to compensate the four regions – Östersund, Karlstad/Kristinehamn, Arvidsjaur and Gotland – most heavily affected by the restructuring of the armed forces. Besides several other projects and the transfer of financial resources to those regions, it was also announced that central-government agencies would be established or moved there to a significant extent. The government jobs that were going to disappear in those regions would thus be replaced by new ones, in that government agencies or parts of them would be relocated from Stockholm.

  • Sharing Towns the Key to the Sharing Economy Puzzle
    Sharing Towns The Key to the Sharing Economy Puzzle April 2019 Sharing Cities Sweden is a national program for the sharing economy in cities. The program aims to put Sweden on the map as a country that actively and critically works with the sharing economy in cities. The objectives of the program are to develop world- leading test-beds for the sharing economy in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö and Umeå, and to develop a national node in order to significantly improve national and international cooperation and promote an exchange of experience on sharing cities. Title: The Key to the Sharing Economy Puzzle Authors: Kelly Delaney, Alexandra Jonca, Samuel Kalb Sharing Cities Sweden is carried out within Viable Cities, a Swedish Innovation Programme for smart sustainable cities, jointly funded by the Swedish Innovation Agency (VINNOVA), the Swedish Energy Agency and the Swedish Research Council for Environment, Agricultural Sciences and Spatial Planning (FORMAS). 2 Executive Summary The aim of this report is to address the problem of consumption in Karlstad by providing a tool, the Key to the Sharing Economy puzzle, to help multiple actors make sense of the Sharing Economy and use it to achieve Karlstad’s goals. This tool will organise conversations and discussions by providing a systematic way of approaching the Sharing Economy, and will help ask and answer important questions to make better decisions about sharing initiatives. It was designed specifically for the Karlstad context but will also prove useful for cities with similar sizes, opportunities and challenges. We provide two types of recommendations for Karlstad in this report.

Over the past 40 years, Karlstad´s share is unchanged. The increase in figures depends to more than 50% of influx from the other 15 municipalities in Värmland. Almost 50% are retired. When it comes to regional GDP, Värmland was number 13 of 24 counties in 1860. Today, the position is 22. Nor- dregio's Regional Potential Index expresses the economic prospects of regions. Värmland is ranked 58 of 74 Nordic regions. In Sweden, only Gävleborg region has a lower position. In global terms, regarding the effects of the digital revolution on future employment, we can expect a decline in man- ufacturing, retail trade and transport on roads. At the same time, we see a very strong increase of the employment in the information technology sector and other high-tech industries.
