Finland
The Finnish road authority has decided to signpost E 45 from E 8, even though the official document uses the Swedish version ("Karesuando") of the name of the village at the border, hinting that it would start on the Swedish side. The Finnish name of the village is Kaaresuvanto, and it is one village only according to the Finnish view, not two. The road is only 800 metres (0.5 mile) long in Finland.
Sweden
In November 2006, the E 45 was extended with the current Swedish national road 45, which makes it start from Karesuando at the E 8 at the Swedish–Finnish border, over Östersund–Mora–Grums, to Gothenburg and on. This extended the length of the route by about 1690 kilometres. The signs of road 45 was changed to E 45 during the summer of 2007. The E 45 has now no other national number.
The ferry Gothenburg–Frederikshavn has about 8 daily departures and takes 2–3 hours.
