The railway will be built to allow train speeds of 250 km/h (155 mph). It was originally planned for speeds up to 320 km/h (200 mph). In 2018, the Swedish Transport Administration decided that the line instead would be designed for speeds up to 250 km/h, citing reduced costs (by 11 billion SEK, from 65 billion to 54 billion).
A new railway will be built between Porsgrunn and the Sørlandet Line around Risør, mostly in tunnel. No decided time schedule.
