Traffic Accident at Fosskoll Tunnel: Long Delays and Investigation Underway

LIER: – There are long queues at the site. Approximately 45 min delays, writes Veitrafikksentralen.

At 1pm on Saturday, the emergency services move to Lier following a report of a traffic accident on the E18 in the Fosskoll Tunnel. The accident must have occurred in a southbound direction.

Two cars and a motorcycle

At 1:30 p.m., the emergency services are on the scene. Two cars and a motorcycle will be involved. All those involved are stable and there are no reports of injuries.

– Everything indicates that there is no question of personal injury. The motorcyclist drove out of the tunnel, not to run away – but because he did not feel safe in there. I agree with that, says operations manager Roger Aaser to Drammens Tidende and says that the health and fire services have left the scene.

Traffic is moving past the accident scene in one lane, and car rescuers have been alerted.

– The traffic accident leads to long queues, reports NRK traffic at 1.43pm.
