| Norway border near Fredrikstad to Goteborg in Stockholm-Goteborg strategic area. Across poorly drained plains containing many small lakes and bogs. Surface of plains interrupted in many places by hillocks and long sinuous sand and gravel ridges. Vegetation chiefly dense needleleaf evergreen forests, scattered cultivated areas, and shrubs. | Mostly 2 lanes, 4 lanes near Goteborg, bituminous, concrete, and some cobblestone; fair to good condition. Three underpasses with low vertical clearance potential bottlenecks. | Single track, 4'8½" gage, electrified, in good condition, parallels all but northern 20 miles of route. Another single-track, 4'8½"-gage, electrified railroad in good condition parallels route but is as much as 30 miles inland. | Dense forests, rocky and bouldery surfaces, steep sided hillocks, lakes, and soft miry ground restrict or preclude cross-country movement and limit offroad dispersal to a few local areas. Limited movement possible when ground frozen. |
| Amphibious landing area near Ystad to Goteborg in Stockholm-Goteborg strategic area. Across level to rolling plains with scattered hillocks. Vegetation predominantly cultivates crops, grass, and scattered areas of needleleaf evergreen forest. | Mostly 2 lanes, Malmo to Angelholm and other short stretches 4 lanes; mostly bituminous surfaced; good condition. Underpasses having low vertical clearance and urban areas potential bottlenecks. | Example | Offroad dispersal and cross-country movement generally fair except in vicinity of urban areas and during spring thaw when ground is soft and miry. |
| Amphibious landing area near Ystad to Stockholm. Across coastal plain containing numerous bogs. Vegetation mainly needleleaf evergreen forests and scattered areas of cultivated crops. | Mostly 2 lanes, bituminous or concrete surfaced, some cobblestones, some gravel; 4 lanes near Stockholm; good condition. Underpasses and urban areas potential bottlenecks | Single track, 4'8½" gage; in good condition; parallel to road only between Ystad and Karlskrona and between Norrkoping and Stockholm; electrified Norrkoping to Stockholm. From Karlskrona rail line goes NW to line between Halsingborg and Norrkoping. | Dense forests, bogs, and, locally, steep slopes preclude or restrict cross-country movement and offroad dispersal to small scattered cultivated areas. |
| Halsingborg to Ystad-Stockholm internal route as Norrkoping. Across dissected, poorly drained plain containing many small lakes and bogs. Vegetation mainly needleleaf evergreen forests and scattered cultivated crops. | Mostly 2 lanes, several short stretches of 4 lanes; bituminous surfaced, fair to good condition. | Mostly double track, 4'8½" gage, electrified, in good condition, as much as 20 miles east of road as far as Mjolby. | Dense forests, numerous small lakes, and bogs severely restrict cross-country movement and effort few possibilities for offroad dispersal in most areas. In cultivated areas near Helsingborg and southwest of Norrkoping conditions are fair. |
