En rad olika inventeringar och karteringar har gjorts för att identifiera riskområden för översvämningar, ras eller skred runt om i landet. Samtidigt som ett arbete pågår med att inventera och efterbehandla potentiellt förorenade områden (MIFO objekt). Ljungans avrinningsområde i Västernorrlands län är ett utsatt område då det finns en stor andel jordar med lera och silt, jordarter som är känsliga för ras och skred. Området har också ett stort antal MIFO objekt och det finns även översvämningsrisker. Den här uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka vilket dataunderlag som finns att tillgå rörande MIFO objekt, översvämnings, ras- och skredrisker i Ljungans avrinningsområde i Västernorrlands län. Samt undersöka om det finns MIFO objekt i det utvalda området som riskerar att drabbas av översvämning, skred eller ras och hur dessa prioriteras idag.

  • Resvanor I Sundsvall
    RESVANOR I SUNDSVALL Resultat från resvaneundersökning 2016 RESVANEUNDERSÖKNING 2016 1 ± Liden Indal Kovland Omland Sundsbruk Stöde Tätortsområde Sundsvall Nedansjö Matfors Kvissleby Lucksta Njurundabommen 2 RESVANEUNDERSÖKNING 2016 Hur reser Sundsvallsborna? Hösten 2016 genomfördes en resvaneundersökning i Sundsvalls kommun för att ta reda på Sundsvallsbornas resvanor. En liknande undersökning gjordes senast 2009. Undersökningen genomfördes som en enkätundersökning och skickades till 10 000 slumpvis utvalda personer i åldern 15-84 år. Varje person fick en specifik dag där de skulle redogöra för sina förflyttningar och resor under just den dagen. Totalt svarade drygt 4 000 Sundsvallsbor på enkäten. Kommunen har i undersökningen delats in i 26 områden fördelade på tätort och omland, se kartan här bredvid. RESVANEUNDERSÖKNING 2016 3 Majoriteten har tillgång till bil... RESULTATET En klar majoritet av de svarande (83 procent) uppgav att de oftast kan använda bil när de AV RESVANE- behöver det. Nästan 90 procent av hushållen har tillgång till en eller flera bilar. ENKÄTEN : ..och de flesta reser med bil 71 procent av resorna inom kommunen görs med bil och bilen är således det vanligaste transportsättet för Sundsvallsborna. Näst vanligast är att resa till fots (elva procent), följt av buss och cykel (båda sju procent). Jämfört med 2009 års undersökning har antalet resor med cykel ökat med hela sex procentenheter medan resor med bil har minskat med två procent. Även för kortare resor än fem kilometer i tätortsområdet utgörs drygt hälften, 54 procent, av resorna med bil. Det näst vanligaste alternativet är att resa till fots (22 procent) följt av cykel (15 procent). Totalt sett visar detta på att även för de allra kortaste resorna i de centrala delarna av Sundsvall görs de i hög utsträckning med bil.

  • Dingersjö Förlängd Mötesstation Och Ombyggnad Av Väg 562 Mellan
    Dingersjö förlängd mötesstation och ombyggnad av väg 562 mellan Bommen och Nolby För att öka kapaciteten på järnvägen ska vi bygga både en förlängd mötesstation på 2,5 km och byta ut tre järnvägsbroar. Mötesstationen anpassas med hänsyn till ett framtida dubbelspår. Dessutom ska vi bygga en plattform för pendeltåg i Njurundabommen med möjlighet att pendla med tåg från år 2020. I projektet ingår även ombyggnad av väg 562, gamla E4, mellan Njurundabommen och Nolby. Ombyggnaden göra för att få utrymme för spåren och för att anpassa vägen till en lokal väg med en parallell gång- och cykelväg. FAKTA om projektet • Längd ca 2,5 km ny järnväg och 2,1 km ombyggnad av vägen • Järnvägen byggs för ökad kapacitet • Ny station i Njurundabommen för regional tågtrafik • En del av det framtida dubbelspåret Gävle-Sundsvall • Nya broar med dubbelspår över Stångån, Mjösundsvägen och Ljungan • Rivning av befintlig järnvägsanläggning inklusive broarna • Ombyggnad av väg 562 (tidigare E4) med gång- och cykel- väg mellan Njurundabommen och Tunavägen. • Planerad byggtid väg 2017-2019, järnvägen 2018-2020 (efterarbeten till 2022) • Beräknad kostnad ca 320 miljoner trafikverket.se/dingersjo och trafikverket.se/vag562ombyggnad Historia Ostkustbanan Dingersjö - Sundsvall Framtid • 1916 togs första spadtaget. • 1927 invigdes sträckan mellan Sundsvall-Gävle Ostkustbanan Dingersjö - Sundsvall Dagsläge • Dingersjö förlängd mötesstation klar 2020 • Station i Njurundabommen för resor med regionaltåg från år 2020 • Nya järnvägsbroar över Ljungan, Stångån och Mjösundsvägen.

  • Forging History
    Forging history FORGING HISTORY Spade-shaped currency bars, history and identity in central Norrland Marta Lindeberg In central Norrland a large number of spade-shaped currency bars have been recovered. Currency bars have been produced since the introduction of iron technology in the late pre-Roman Iron Age, which roughly coincides with the introduction of agriculture. It is suggested that the shape of the bars is referential to the socketed axe, due to the importance of the latter during this period of change. The currency bars were therefore associated with a mythical history and local identity. The youngest 14C-date shows that the bars became part of narratives that remained relevant throughout much of the Iron Age, up until the Viking Age. Key words: central Norrland, spade-shaped currency bar, socketed axe, mythical history, identity Currency bars (Sw. ämnesjärn) were produced in great amounts throughout Europe during the Iron Age, in different shapes that were distinctly regional (e.g. Martens 1977, 1979; Hingley 1990, 2005; Lyngstrøm 2008). The purpose of this article is to discuss the spade- shaped currency bars of central Norrland. It has become evident that these bars cannot be interpreted solely in relation to iron technology and trade as has previously been done. In this article it will be argued that they were objects embedded with ideas connected to mythical his- tory, origins and local identity, ideas that also came to influence the choice of place in which to deposit them. SPADE-SHAPED CURRENCY BARS The term “currency bar” was introduced in Britain in the early 20th century when these bars were thought to form a kind of Iron Age cur- Current Swedish Archaeology, Vol 18, 2010 203 Marta Lindeberg Fig.
