A rock has fallen onto the road surface inside the tunnel on highway 50 between Aurland and Hol.
– We did notice boulder from a passerby. After that we know will be talking about a fairly large boulder, says Ole Tom Nord, operations manager in Sogn og Fjordane police.
No one should have been injured when boulder fell down.
Road Traffic Management Centre informs that the tunnel will be closed indefinitely.
– It is difficult to say when tunnlene reopens. An entrepreneur from the Highways Agency will be on site within a short time. He will assess whether there is a risk that more can race down. In addition, it takes time to remove the stone, says Jan Erikstad, traffic operator Road Traffic Management Centre.
Detour is via Hemsedalfjell or plateau in Europe.
