Parties in Region Stockholm have different views on the expansion of shuttle boat traffic

The parties in Region Stockholm have been asked how they want to develop shuttle boat traffic in the future. The parties' written answers show that they think differently about how quickly and comprehensively the traffic should be expanded - and where the boats are most useful.

Want to go the furthest

The Center Party proposes nine new lines, including Slagsta–Slussen and Ropsten–Täby.

The Green Party wants to invest one billion kroner in more departures and develop new technology for maritime traffic.

Want to expand and add lines

The Left Party wants to expand traffic on both Lake Mälaren and Salt Lake, while the Christian Democrats want to extend line 80 to Djursholm and Täby and introduce a new line between Solna strand and Stadshuskajen.

The Sweden Democrats briefly reply that they want to "expand the supply" and have more lines.

More cautious development

The Social Democrats want to continue to develop traffic according to existing planning and let future expansion be guided by travel documents and funding. The Liberals want to expand where shuttle boats provide clear advantages, but not where there is already well-functioning land traffic.

The moderates are the most cautious and write that they are not planning any major adjustments. The party, however, wants to review an extension of line 80 to Täby and line 89 to Gamla stan and Slussen.
