Due to roadworks in Vesterngata, Hønefoss, starting Monday, 13th October, three bus routes in the Hønefoss area will be subject to a diversion. This means that several bus stops will be temporarily out of service.

According to Ringerike Municipality, the work is scheduled to last until approximately mid-December. There are limited alternative routes, so the affected services will follow a relatively long diversion.

Linje 221 Hønefoss – Haug - Jevnaker will run via Lisletta to Klekken (Haugsbygd), then continue its regular route to/from Jevnaker. The route pattern is shown on the map below.

Linje 223 Hønefoss – Klekken – Haug will run via Lisletta to/from Klekken (Haugsbygd), then continue its regular route via Øvre Berg to Haugsbygd. This route will also not serve Schjongslunden during the diversion period.

Linje 225 Hønefoss-Viul will run via Øyatangen. This route will go from Hønefoss Sentrum – Hønengata – E16 to Hvalsmokrysset, and then continue via Øyatangen. It will resume its regular route from Hvalskrysset.

Line 71 will be rerouted via Jensvollveien, Lierstranda and the new hospital from 18 August due to extensive roadworks at Nøste. This work is estimated to last for 2.5 years.

This detour will result in longer journey times, and there will therefore be departures every 20 minutes instead of every 15 minutes.

Stops that will not be serviced during the construction period are:

• Stoppen (direction Drammen)
• Bruusgårds vei
• Nøste Villaveien
• Nøsteveien 28
• Nøstebakken
• Fjellheim skole
• Solbakken

Stops we will sevice instead: CC shopping centre, Lierstranda, Rodebakken, Jensvollveien, St. Hallvard and Lier VGS.
