Construction work on the Reykjanesbraut – blasting
This week, targeted explosions were carried out near tunnels related to the dualling of the Reykjanesbraut. These targeted explosions, which were quite strongly felt by some residents and business staff in the area, are now due to be completed, and no further such explosions are planned.
Specific explosions at tunnels
This week, targeted blasting was carried out at the underpasses associated with the dualling of the Reykjanesbraut. These targeted blasts, which were quite noticeable to some residents and business staff in the area, are now complete, and no further such explosions are planned. The explosions cause some noise and can be accompanied by a shockwave, but the associated danger is very small, amounting to little more than considerable noise.
The notification about the explosions was overlooked, and the Road Administration, the contractor and the City of Hafnarfjörður apologise for this.
