For his work on cyclists’ conditions in roadwork zones, he was awarded the Future Transport Award in the Road Security category in 2017. The jury’s motivation read:

The winner has initiated and driven the extensive work that will hopefully become the Swedish standard for how so‑called unprotected road users should be handled in connection with road construction. Safety, accessibility, and traffic‑friendliness are the key concepts when it comes to testing and classifying safety equipment.”
