Infrastructure. the Government’s objective is that the new main lines for high-speed rail should be completed so that Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö, the better are linked.
the Deployment to happen at a pace which the economy allows without tax increases, but it is not certain that the government with support in parliament.
– We make a substantial investment in infrastructure, says minister for infrastructure Anna Johansson (S), when she presents the government’s infrastrukturproposition.
the Government wants to increase the economic framework with over 100 billion in the next plan period.
– the Needs are enormous, ” says Johansson.
the Bill is a result of negotiations with budgetpartnern the Left.
No tax increases
Compared with the current planperiod for the years 2014-2025, which the alliance government was over, increase the appropriations for operation and maintenance of railways with 47 per cent, according to Anna Johansson – from 85 to 125 billion.
– There is no tax increases for this plan to be funded, ” she says.
the Minister expect that the scope for reform that is “released” when the surplus target be changed to be able to be used in the financing.
– We think it is a good idea.
Enhance the maintenance
– We have had the ambition to greatly increase the maintenance, it is important to get the existing plants to work, ” said Johansson to TT.
Vänsterpartiledaren Jonas Sjöstedt says that the V would have liked to go longer, but he is still relatively satisfied.
– on the other hand needed the increase of underhållsutgifterna, on the other hand, we implement what we promised, that it shall be carried out in state-sponsored. It is too fragmented, and lack the overall picture of the day. Made it here, we have the potential to be the order of the Swedish railway, ” says Sjöstedt.
as late as yesterday, the Moderates that they have fluctuated since the election and now says no. Justification: It will be too expensive, are economically inefficient and takes too long to build.
– I think that there are many things in the infrastructure that we can agree on. The only problem is that when you start to use very large amounts of höghastighetsbanorna, then the money will be taken from something else, say the Conservatives ekonomiskpolitiske spokesperson Ulf Kristersson.
Kristersson believe that it is irresponsible to bet without having a serious financing completed at the same time as many other important projects can be implemented in the “here and now”.
Previously the Liberals swung to the ‘ no ‘ and The sweden democrats are also opposed to the high-speed. The christian democrats and the Centre party would still like to build but have not decided final for a yes.
Software only

– Software is the first stage in a planned high-speed and the byggstartas 2017, ” says Johansson without being able to say when the entire system should be completed.
– Planeringsförutsättningarna is not such that we can do it with any precision.
centre party trafikpolitiske spokesperson Anders Åkesson interpret the government’s line as to the eastern link is the only route that we now know.
– Software and rolled in time and it exists within the current framework, but the rest shoots on beyond 2030, ” says Åkesson.
He does not see that the government has reserved some money for further high-speed routes.
– I am glad that you prioritize närtidsunderhållet of the railway, but I’m not sure on that one grazing of the debt which is in and with it.
