Lansväg 229

Örbyleden in Hökarängen, October 2011

Länsväg 229 (Swedish for 'County Road 229') is a primary county road in Sweden from the Örbyleden/Huddingevägen intersection in Stockholm to the Tyresövägen/Bollmoravägen intersection in Tyresö.

In the Stockholm end it begins, under the name Örbyleden, as a dual carriageway at a three-way junction with County Road 226. It then continues towards the southeast to Gubbängen, where it crosses National Road 73 in a cloverleaf interchange, changing its name to Tyresövägen.[1] West of Skarpnäck junction the road turns into a motorway. At Älta junction the County Road 260 has a short common segment until the Skrubba junction. The road continues then to the Bollmora junction, and both the motorway and County Road 229 end shortly after at a roundabout.[2]

For the regular road portion the speed limits found are 50 and 70 km/h (30 and 45 mph), and for the whole motorway portion the speed limit is 90 km/h (55 mph).[2] The road has separated road halves for almost the entire stretch, with an exception for a 700 m (0.43 mi) portion in Hökarängen.
