Forest are appealing for the transportdispens

"the forest companies can not run out of stored timber from the forests in the amount they want. Heavy transport on forest roads is limited and a number of forest companies in southern Sweden now appeal to the Dmv for a waiver."

"the Wood needs to be run out as quickly as possible in order to make room for trees that are infested by the granbarkborren, said SR P4 Kronoberg. The mild winter has made the roads likely to break when they become too wet, and during the tjällossningsperioden is heavy forest transport limited. Therefore the wood remains and the risk to be in the way when new wood comes."

"If the new infested wood is left in the forest for a long time in our are at risk it will worsen the attacks in the woods. In may, when the krypet starts to swarm, it has only about eight weeks to get the fresh wood out of the forest."

"Therefore, to forestry companies have the dispenser, and to the Swedish transport administration will be quick to remove displays when the roads one can drive on."

"– There must be a dialogue where they will present the needs, the roads are what they need to run on?, so we look at the roads, " says Lennart Andersson, regionaldirektör at the Dmv, to the radio."
