The Road Administration in cooperation with
\nThe City of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur and the utilities company recently put out to tender the dualling of the Reykjanesbraut from
\nKald\u00e1rsel Road and west of the Kr\u00fdsuv\u00edkurveg junction and related works which concern
\nchanges to the utility company's pipes. The work is expected to start now.
\nthis spring and conclude in late autumn 2020. <\/p>\n
About
\nit is a matter of doubling a 3.2 km section from Kald\u00e1rselsvegur and westwards.
\nKrysuv\u00edkur junction where a new carriageway will be built south of the current road.
\nThe road will be separated by a 3-metre-wide central reservation between the carriageways with crash barriers.
\non both sides. The motorway will be dug down by up to 4 m in two sections from
\nthe current footbridge at \u00c1sland and to Strandgata and through Hvaleyrarholti from
\nThorlakst\u00fan and west of the new underpass at Su\u00f0urbraut. Part of the works
\nis widening the bridge over Strandgata.<\/p>\n
Alongside the widening of the Reykjanesbraut, extensive measures will be taken.
\nmeasures to reduce traffic noise in the vicinity of the runway and comply with
\nRegulations on noise levels. A new soundproof barrier will be built between the Reykjanesbraut and
\nAt \u00c1sbraut opposite Erlu\u00e1s, the footpath from the end of the existing footbridge will be reconstructed. The sound barrier at \u00c1sbraut
\nThe kerb opposite \u00c1lfta\u00e1s will be raised. The current kerbs at Hvamma will be
\nOn the reconstructed and nearest part of the track, soil cells will be used to achieve better
\nAcoustics. At Su\u00f0urhvamm, sound walls are also erected on top of the m\u00e6n, extending inwards.
\non Strandgata and a sound barrier was installed
\nnorth side of the Strandgata Bridge. Then a timber fence along \u00de\u00fafut\u00fan will be replaced.
\noutside the sound barrier. At Thoralavkt\u00fan, soundproofing will be installed. At the easternmost point, tall
\nmanures with soil mounds, but the western part will be conventional
\nsoil reinforcement. Finally, localised defences will be made at the HS utilities connection point on
\nOpposite Su\u00f0urholt.<\/p>\n
Transport links between neighbourhoods for pedestrians and cyclists will be
\nimproved and made safer with new footbridges over the Reykjanesbraut. A new bridge
\nwill be between Hvammar and \u00c1sl\u00e1ns, opposite \u00c1lfta\u00e1s. The current underpass at
\nThorlakst\u00fan will be removed and a bridge will be put in its place. The path design aims to improve
\naccess for all. Before road and bridge construction begins, utility companies will have largely
\ncompleted the relocation of pipelines. These are high-voltage cables and telecommunications pipelines.,
\nwater and heating pipe installations.<\/p>\n
