The harsh winter has put pressure on shipping in Lake Mälaren. While the Swedish Maritime Administration points to a lack of icebreaker capacity and resources, Mälarhamnar cannot be responsible for a state authority's fairway without an agreement and compensation.

For 25 years, Mälarhamnar has been the link between Mälardalen and the world. From the quays in Västerås and Köping, we enable sustainable growth, efficient transport and the logistics of the future, with people, shipping and the region's development at the centre. In the anniversary year 2026, we celebrate our journey. We will open the harbours to the public and continue to look ahead to an even stronger and more sustainable future.
