Norwegian Public Roads Administration
Given that it occurs after the words "Norska Statens" and that the Swedish word for road is "väg", this is a Norwegian word and not Swedish. See link below for a word list that contains the phrase "Statens vegvesen" (note one 's'). The English phrase makes sense in the context.
Example sentence:
Resistance to tunnel-washing has been authenticated according to instructions from the Norwegian Public Roads Administration...
