The new Bothnia Railway is a factor of great significance both for today´s employment market and for the future. By improving the prerequisites for speedy and comfortable commuting, the employment market will expand considerably. For instance the Bothnia Railway will reduce commuting time between Umeå and Örnsköldsvik to approximately 45 minutes.
