--- name: norway-roads description: Query real-time road conditions, closures, and traffic issues in Norway. Use when the user asks about road status, closed roads, traffic conditions, weather on roads, or planning a route in Norway. Handles queries like "Are there road closures between Oslo and Bergen?", "What's the road condition on E6?", "Any issues driving to Trondheim today?", or general road condition checks for Norwegian roads. --- # Norway Roads Query real-time road closures and conditions from Statens Vegvesen NVDB API. ## Quick Start Check all current road closures: ```bash ./scripts/query_roads.py ``` Check route between two cities: ```bash ./scripts/query_roads.py --from Oslo --to Bergen ``` Check specific road/location: ```bash ./scripts/query_roads.py --road "Strynefjell" ``` Get JSON output: ```bash ./scripts/query_roads.py --json ``` ## Usage Examples ### Check Route Conditions When planning a trip between two Norwegian cities: ```bash ./scripts/query_roads.py --from Oslo --to Bergen ./scripts/query_roads.py --from Oslo --to Trondheim ./scripts/query_roads.py --from Bergen --to Stavanger ``` Supported cities: Oslo, Bergen, Stavanger, Trondheim, Tromsø, Kristiansand, Ålesund, Bodø ### Filter by Location Name ```bash ./scripts/query_roads.py --road "Strynefjell" ./scripts/query_roads.py --road "E6" ``` ## What Data is Returned The skill queries two types of road restrictions from NVDB: 1. **Vegstengning (Road Closures)** - Scheduled or permanent closures - Seasonal closures (winter mountain passes) - Landslide/avalanche closures - Maintenance closures - Causes: Snow (Snø), Ice (Is), Rock (Stein) 2. **Vegsperring (Physical Barriers)** - Physical blocking of roads - Gates, barriers, concrete blocks - Permanent restrictions ## API Response Format Each closure includes: - **location**: Street/road name - **county**: Norwegian county (fylke) - **municipality**: Kommune - **from_date/to_date**: Closure period - **cause**: Reason (Snø=snow, Is=ice, Stein=rock) - **type**: closure or barrier ## Data Source - **API**: NVDB v3 (Nasjonal VegDataBank) - **URL**: https://nvdbapiles-v3.atlas.vegvesen.no - **Object types**: 485 (Vegstengning), 607 (Vegsperring) - **Update frequency**: Real-time from official database - **No API key required**: Open public data ## Common Norwegian Terms | Norwegian | English | |-----------|---------| | Vegstengning | Road closure | | Vegsperring | Road barrier | | Snø | Snow | | Is | Ice | | Stein | Rock | | Fylke | County | | Stengt | Closed | ## Major Routes & Counties **Counties (Fylker):** - Viken (Oslo region) - Vestland (Bergen region) - Rogaland (Stavanger region) - Trøndelag (Trondheim region) - Troms og Finnmark (North) - Agder (South) - Møre og Romsdal (Ålesund region) - Nordland (Bodø region) **Major Roads:** - E6: North-south trunk (Kirkenes-Halden) - E16: Bergen-Oslo via Lærdal tunnel - E39: West coast route ## Limitations - Shows registered closures in NVDB, not real-time traffic incidents - For live traffic, use Vegvesen mobile app or call 175 - Winter closures are often seasonal and recurring - Some recent incidents may not yet be registered ## Reference See [references/api-docs.md](references/api-docs.md) for API details and city mappings.
