Nordic Iron Ore AB and the Swedish Transport Administration have agreed upon a technical solution for connecting Nordic Iron Ore’s planned industrial rail to the nearby main line railway. This means that Nordic Iron Ore may proceed with its plans for environmentally friendly railway transport of its future production of ultra high-grade iron ore concentrate to Oxelösund’s harbour for further transport by sea to final customers.
The Swedish Transport Administration (Trafikverket) has recently completed its work on review on function (Funktionsutredning) and demands that must be met (Anläggningsspecifika krav Järnväg – AKJ) concerning Nordic Iron Ore’s planned industrial rail at Blötberget and its connection to the main line railway. These reviews form the basis for the construction and describe the Transport Administration’s demands related to traffic, environment and technical function. The Transport Administration’s AKJ has now been approved and completed by the Transport Administration. The next step in the project is to produce required construction plans which is expected to begin during this year.
