The purpose was to create one major road to follow than the many routes that were being used.
The road did not follow the edge of the bluff as before, but cut directly across the flat.
For a time, the road followed a series of backwaters.
At this point the road followed a straighter path than the river.
The road on the other side followed the creek, keeping well along the brink.
The road followed the river for a short while before the terrain began rising again.
The same journey can be done by car, as the road follows the river and lake all the way.
A road used for thousands of years, Redvägen, followed the river.
The road passing through roughly follows the course of the river.
From here, the road follows its own course for the next 25 miles.
