Highway system

County Road 64 (Norwegian: Fylkesvei 64) is a two-lane highway which runs between Kristiansund and Åndalsnes in Møre og Romsdal, Norway. It branches from National Road 70 in Kristiansund, runs through the Atlantic Ocean Tunnel, through the island of Averøy, and across the Atlantic Ocean Road to Eide. It continues to Årø in Molde via the Tussen Tunnel, then heads under Fannefjorden in the Fannefjord Tunnel via the island Bolsøya to Skålahalvøya on the Bolsøy Bridge. It then crosses Langfjorden on the Årfarnes–Sølsnes Ferry, and enters the municipality of Rauma. It intersects with E136 in Åndalsnes.

The Atlantic Ocean Road was in 2006 described as "the world's best road trip" by The Guardian.[1]There are plans for a subsea tunnel, the Langfjord Tunnel, to replace the ferry.[2]
