Contractor ÍAV has suspended its construction of a road through the Gálgahraun lava field in Iceland until the courts rule on whether or not the halted project can be completed. The suspension of the project was agreed with environmental protection group Hraunavinir ('Lava Friends'), which has pledged to continue its protest against the road.
As part of the agreement reached with Hraunavnir, ÍAV will in the meantime work on other projects that won’t have an irreversible impact on the lava field.
