Connecting Norway

The Government aims to provide good infrastructure for electronic and postal communications and an effective, universally accessible, safe and environmentally friendly transport system - covering transport and communication requirements and advancing regional development. Important priorities in the current National Transport Plan includes improving maintenance of the existing infrastructure, greater focus on major highway investments, a new interest benefit scheme for counties (regional level) and considerable focus on major railway investments, particularly in the Oslo region.
