At 09:19, Bane Nor wrote that the traffic control centre in Bergen was evacuated. Trains stood still on Vest- og Sørlandet on Tuesday morning, according to Bergens Tidende.
The evacuation was triggered by an automatic fire alarm in the building Bane Nor occupies at Krinikelkroken 1, Bergensavisen reported. "Trains stand still until the situation is clarified," Bane Nor wrote, according to VG. VG wrote that it was not stated why the control centre had been evacuated.
At 09:33, Bane Nor reported that the situation was resolved, but people must still expect delays. The traffic control centres direct and monitor train traffic. There are four of them in Norway.
The centre based in Bergen operates the Arendalsbanen, Bergensbanen, Flåmsbana and Sørlandsbanen lines, Bane Nor wrote.
