Anders Selström takes over Trafikverket's central region

Trafikverket's central region, including Dalarna, will have a new regional director starting next week. Anders Selström, previously with the Large Projects division, assumes responsibility for seven counties and two million residents.

Trafikverket's central region is undergoing a leadership change. Anders Selström has been appointed as the new regional director and will take up the position as early as next Monday. The region covers seven counties, including Dalarna, and handles infrastructure for about two million residents.

Selström has worked at Trafikverket for nearly six years, until now in the Large Projects division. There, he has contributed to managing extensive infrastructure initiatives. His new role involves leading the regional operations, with a focus on traffic and transport solutions in central Sweden.

According to Trafikverket, this transition is part of the organization's internal movements to strengthen leadership in the region. No further details on Selström's specific priorities have been disclosed at this time.
