Rail freight in Norway has been constantly growing over the past few years, as Bane NOR, the Norwegian infrastructure manager mentioned. The first half of 2022 saw an eight per cent increase compared to the same period last year. In addition, many Norwegian companies have already applied to rise their rail freight traffic by 30 per cent, compared to 2022. However, these applications need to be reviewed by Bane NOR to check if the current capacity allows for such a leap.
