Background & Purpose

During the autumn of 2025, opposition parties submitted many suggestions on how to improve road maintenance, winter road safety, and the transition to fossil-free vehicles. The parliament reviewed these but found that current government plans already cover these areas.

The Decision

The parliament voted to reject all 120 proposals, meaning that no new laws or changes to current traffic policy were adopted.

Does this affect you?

  • Road users: Drivers will not see any changes to road maintenance standards or charging infrastructure policies as a result of these motions.
  • Transport companies: Businesses in the transport sector will continue to operate under existing regulations regarding fossil-free vehicle requirements.

In Practice

  • Current rules for road maintenance and winter road clearing remain unchanged.
  • The government continues its existing strategy for fossil-free transport without new parliamentary mandates.
  • No new requirements for charging infrastructure or fuel stations were introduced through these motions.
  • The parliament considers the current ongoing work sufficient to handle the issues raised.
