July 2019: Ground works update
The EISCAT_3D site itself will only occupy 120×120 meters but extensive works need to be done to secure the area from land-slide risks. For that work, we need to build a temporary construction road to be used to transport material from higher grounds down. We needed also to clear a larger area from trees. The temporary construction road will later be removed and the unused land will be returned to nature.
