There are two main weather forecast sites in Norway. Both give accurate forecasts. We tend to prefer Yr.no, but both are widely used in Norway.

https://www.yr.no and https://www.storm.no

VG.no is one of the biggest newspapers in Norway. It’s got a tabloid profile. You can use google translate to read in English (or any other language).

Aftenposten.no is another main newspaper. Also available through google translate.

BT.no is the regional newspaper of the western part of Norway. Also available through google translate.

Avisa-hordaland.no is the local newspaper for the Voss region. Also available through google translate.

Google maps is well etablished as a map and navigational service in Norway.

Vegvesenet - At the site of The Norwegian Public Roads Administration, you can find information about road works, closed roads and tunnels, etc. Try it through google translate here. You may also dial 175 on your phone if you need urgent information about the traffic.

NAF - Norwegian Automobile Association. You can contact them if you need urgent assistance along the Norwegian roads. 24/7 phone number: 08505 or +4723213100

Norwegian toll roads. Read more about the system Autopass and how to prepare before you arrive here. This is especially relevant if you drive your own car.
If you drive a rental car, it’s probably equipped with the Autopass chip, and you can pay when you return the car.

Norwegian fines. The fines are relatively high in Norway compared to other European countries, so it’s best to relax and stay within the speed limits.

If the speed limit is 60 km/h, you have to pay about €400 if you drive 75 km/h and €900 if you drive 85 km/h. There are many automatic traffic controls and during the summer season the police will also frequently do manual radar controls.
