In Aarhus City Council’s ‘Billion-kroner Agreement’ of May 2007, funds were allocated for the realignment of Sletvej.

Sletvej is a relatively narrow road connecting Chr. Xs vej with Skanderborgvej. Towards Chr. Xs vej, the road runs close to the village of Slet, but the section towards Skanderborgvej is primarily characterised by commercial premises.
Traffic on the road has increased significantly since the opening of Genvejen, as Sletvej has consequently become the direct access route from the motorways to the entire southern Aarhus business area.

It is therefore planned to relocate the road further south, so as to relieve traffic congestion in the residential area of Slet.
