Relocation of Viborgvej

In 1990, the Folketing passed the “Act on Certain Sections of Main Roads”, which authorised the Minister for Transport to plan an upgrade of Route 26 between Aarhus and Hanstholm.
In 2006, a report was published containing a number of proposals, including one to reroute the section between the E45 and Svenstrup.

The report proposes rerouting the road to a new main road bypassing the built-up areas of Sabro, Lading, Fajstrup, Voldby, Anbæk and Svenstrup. The final route is expected to be determined during an EIA study phase.
