Hörnefors Travel Centre

Hörnefors resecentrum

Hörnefors Travel Centre is located within walking distance of the central part of the Hörnefors urban area. The station was completed in 2011 and is one of several travel centres built in connection with the Bothnia Line.

Inspiration from the mill community

Hörnefors’ history as a mill community has inspired the building’s architecture. The façade comprises red brick with black glazed brick bands, and the wide copper roof edge frames the building nicely. The central part of the building consists of large glass panels facing in three directions, and provides an excellent space for the smaller waiting rooms. The walls of the central section are slightly slanted and give the building a striking expression. As the platform extends over the Hörneån river, this means that another communication route over the Hörneån river has been created. From the platform, you can see the sedum roof on the two lower parts of the building.

INAB owns the station property and is responsible for the day-to-day operation of the travel centre. The Swedish Transport Administration is responsible for maintaining the tracks and platforms.

  • Hållbarhetsbokslut Vi på INAB värderar hållbarhetsarbetet högt och strävar efter att det ska genomsyra allt vi gör. Med de ansvarsområden som vilar på vår verksamhet har vi också en viktig roll i Umeås fortsatta utveckling. För att tydliggöra och synliggöra vårt hållbarhetsarbete har vi sammanfattat det i ett hållbarhetsbokslut.
  • Möjlig miljardinvestering till Umeå Det Litauiska företaget Kaunas Metal UAB har planer på att investera ca en miljard kronor i en fabrik i Umeå. Kanunas Metal tillverkar armeringsjärn till byggindustrin. Umeå kommun har reserverat ett stort markområde på Klockarbäcken. Går planerna i lås kan det röra sig om 300 arbetstillfällen.
