Lofast - the mainland connection of Lofoten - opened the 1st of December 2007, and has given considerable reductions in travel time, especially towards northern and eastern destinations. The report focuses on the effects of the new mainland connection on business, tourism and aviation. Central issues are the impact of Lofast on tourism in Lofoten and Vesterålen, on the development of air traffic at the main and regional airports in the area, and on industry development, with examples from the fishing industry and the transport of goods.
