Securing Stockholm as a more robust destination

Passengers set out to Stockholm will, after 2019, no longer risk ending up in Norway or Finland when severe weather conditions hamper normal aviation traffic. The installation of ILS Cat IIIB technology allowing planes to land at Stockholm Skavsta airport in all weather is proceeding according to plan.

The first step of the upgrade is the projection of  runway lights,  a work that now is concluded. The ILS-equipment bought from the Norweigan company Indra has been delivered and the installation begin in 2018. A study of the airspace performed by Skyguide has just been delivered.

Other studies and prognoses necessary in the preparations for the increased capacity of the airport and the making of an international hub for aviation, rail and road transports by the planned high speed train station at the airport are either already made or in the making. The project receives EU-funding from the Connecting Europe Facility for the period 2016-2019.
