Traffic has come to a standstill on E18 due to a car fire.
The fire is supposed to have broken out in a vehicle during transport along E18 in Örebro at the Ekersvägen traffic intersection. According to the incident report, it is a trailer that is supposed to have become completely engulfed in flames.
The driver is supposed to have gotten out of the car and the rescue service is working to put out the fire.
Due to the fire, there is a stop in the southbound direction but it may be necessary to stop in the northbound direction as well due to smoke development.
