Improved accessibility on Stockholm roads in 2012

Road transport access in the Swedish capital Stockholm improved in 2012, a study by the Traffic Administration Office shows. One key reason for this was said to be fewer disruptions from major roadworks during the year, and less traffic was reported on the roads both in inner city areas and in the region as a whole. Cycling is on the increase, and environmental and traffic commissioner Ulla Hamilton reportedly said that the City is now increasing its investments in bicycle infrastructure.
