I live 30 minutes north of this, used to be a truck driver passing this place multible times a day, glad I'm not in that job right now, as there is not any good alternative routes made for trucks...

When i took my bike from Levanger to Åsen i took the nearby fv111 which runs on the opposite side of the lake. You could probably go that route

I also see this as a suggestion in Google maps. Can anyone verify that it's OK for a regular car? Going past there tonight.

Edit: I see google maps shows it as Fv111, but Statens Vegvesen maps shows it as gamle kongens veg (Fv6854)

Gamle kongens vei yeah. There are houses nd farms along the road, although i remember the road passing under the train tracks. That's probably what they refer to when they say local roads work for cars but not trucks

Should be fine, driven there many many times. But probably increased traffic now, so I'd take it easy and drive carefully.

Please don't use Google, they haven't updated numbers on roads in 5+ years at this point.

There was a big reform that started after 2010 and another that came into effect in 2020 which saw all county roads getting unique numbers across the country.

What you see as fv111 is now fv6854.
The old number was unique only to the old Nord-Trøndelag county until they merged the two in 2018.

Openstreetmap is more up to date in many cases as it uses official road data and is a community driven map database.
