Remiss bodies endorse preparedness status for Sälen Airport amid ongoing push

Two major remiss bodies have backed MP Peter Hultqvist's (S) demand for preparedness status at Scandinavian Mountains Airport in Sälenfjällen, Dalarna's busiest airport. This follows Trafikverket's earlier rejection of the proposal, which drew sharp criticism from Hultqvist.

Following Trafikverket's March rejection of preparedness status for three airports including Sälenfjällens, MP Peter Hultqvist (S) from Borlänge continues his campaign. Two major remiss bodies have now endorsed his demand, as reported by moratidning.se.

The airport in Sälenfjällen is Dalarna's most trafficked, serving key roles that supporters argue warrant the status already held by airports in Mora and Borlänge.

This support intensifies pressure on decision-makers, building on Hultqvist's prior criticisms of the rejection as tone-deaf.
