Temporary exceptions September 2025
The exceptions apply to transports that are directly affected by the closed routes.
As the driver, you must specify the reason for deviating from the original rules by writing this on the tachograph chart, or on a printout from the tachograph.
If you have a SMART tachograph, your GPS position will be marked when you as the driver enter start and end countries. If you have a first-generation digital tachograph, you must specify the start and end location on a printout from the tachograph.
E6 at Levanger in Trøndelag
After the landslide at E6 Nesvatnet in Levanger, traffic is diverted via County Road 755 (fv 755) for vehicles up to 50 tonnes. Modular vehicle combinations cannot use this diversion route. An alternative is to drive via the E14 in Sweden. These alternative diversions involve significant transport delays.
The temporary exception will apply from 30 August 2025 to 6 September 2025 inclusive, or until the E6 reopens to traffic if this occurs first.
These are the exceptions
- Daily driving time must not exceed 10 hours (originally 9 hours)
- Weekly driving time must not exceed 60 hours (originally 56 hours)
- Total accumulated driving time over two consecutive weeks must not exceed 100 hours (originally 90 hours)
- A driver may have at most five reduced daily rest periods between two weekly rest periods (originally limited to three)
Swedish Customs will allow temporary border crossing for transport through Sweden
In addition to exemption from the driving and rest time regulations, the Swedish Customs Authority has adopted temporary exceptions for border crossing and simplified reporting procedures for goods intended for the Norwegian market that need to be transported via Sweden due to the landslide on the E6.
Their decision allows commercial transports to use an alternative route via E14 Storlien and from there along the road 322/FV72 to Verdal from 30 August to 3 September. Transports must follow the specified route without deviation, and it is not permitted to load, unload or take breaks on Swedish territory. Also, it is not permitted to transport goods subject to import restrictions.
