Between Gällivare and Kiruna in northern sweden lies the village of Kalixforsbron. The only way to get to and from the village, which is located on the Gällivaresidan, is to go over a bridge that goes over the kalix river. Now say to the Dmv that they will tear down the bridge if no one takes over the operation, which cost about eight million dollars per year. A demolition would mean that a dozen or so households in the village would be isolated completely, type SVT Norrbotten.
When a new railway bridge was built in the 1980s was the old bridge still connecting the village with the public road network, but according to the Swedish transport administration belongs to the old bridge still not the road network and therefore falls outside their responsibility. The local vägföreningen have no opportunity to take over the operation and neither Gällivare or Kiruna municipality wants to take over.
— immigrant Families live like other families, they have a need to get into town for work, schools and care but stuff like that is cut the of of the the bridge will disappear, ” says Torbjörn Rormark, accommodation in Kalixforsbron, to SVT.
