These changes streamline the Str\u00e6t\u00f3 routes in Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur in line with the Borgarl\u00edna project, while also making the routes more direct and reducing journey times. The new arrangement should therefore be better suited to a large group of bus users who travel to school or work within and\/or outside Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur. And not least for older primary school pupils who attend their leisure activities and training sessions around the town.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/straeto-nytt-leidanet-2020-a3.jpg\" alt=\"New street layout 2020 A3\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 842px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 842\/1191;\"><sup>This is what the new Str\u00e6t\u00f3 route system in Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur looks like. The new route network came into effect on 14 June 2020.&nbsp;<\/sup><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/media\/umhverfi-og-gotur\/Straeto-nytt-leidanet-2020-A3.pdf\/\">See the new route network in Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>More direct routes and shorter journey times <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The changes came into effect in mid-June after extensive consideration and good consultation with Str\u00e6t\u00f3 users. Route 19 runs at 15-minute intervals during peak hours and 30-minute intervals outside peak hours. Route 21 will continue to run at 30-minute intervals. Connections to routes 1 and 55 will be available at Fir\u00f0i. The changes are intended to better suit a large group of users, but in some cases, Str\u00e6t\u00f3 users will now have to walk a longer distance to the next stop. The system is constantly under review, and it is hoped that these changes will encourage more groups of people to see the value and benefit of using the bus as their main mode of transport, whether within the municipality or when travelling around the capital region.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"internal\" href=\"\/en\/abendingar\/\">Submit a suggestion via the City of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur's suggestion portal.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Major improvement projects ahead<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is the first phase of the major Metro project, in which route 1 plays a major part, starting and ending at V\u00f6llunum. In the coming years, public transport in the capital region will undergo significant changes. The two main improvement projects are, on the one hand, the construction of infrastructure for a Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system, and on the other, a review of the Str\u00e6t\u00f3 route network in preparation for the introduction of the City Line, which requires the network to be adapted to utilise its infrastructure. This will ensure that the public transport system functions as a single, integrated system.&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00cdb\u00faar, nemendur, starfsf\u00f3lk og a\u00f0rir Str\u00e6t\u00f3notendur \u00ed n\u00fat\u00ed\u00f0 og framt\u00ed\u00f0 taki\u00f0 eftir!
