Prior to the launch of Västerbottensnytt in March 2001, Nordnytt broadcast news in Norrbotten County and Västerbotten County.[2] As of 2015, it broadcasts only in Norrbotten. On April 12 it was renamed SVT Nyheter Norrbotten, since it no longer broadcasts in Västerbotten, which is considered a part of Northern Sweden.
