main transport was between Vangshylla, Mosvik and Ytterøy, predominantly due to Mosvik and Ytterøy having a common minister, and Inderøy and Mosvik having a common general practitioner and veterinarian. In 1930, the road to Kvam was expanded to Vangshylla to a quality that allowed motorized vehicles, following a slightly different route. Fylkesbilene i Nord-Trøndelag started a scheduled bus service and Trygve Næss, the oldest son of Thomas Næss, started a taxi service. In 1933, a new store building was built by Næss. In 1930, a new dock was built that allowed direct access to land. There were normally three weekly arrivals of the ship from Innherred Dampskibsselskap and the bus. Until the 1940s, these came on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, when the newspapers Nord-Trøndelag and Inn-Trøndelagen were published. These days would assemble people from the area who would collect their mail and newspapers, and conduct necessary purchases. During the 1930s, Anton Ulven started a sawmill at Dalsenget—on the hill above the dock area. This was later moved to Straumen and became Inderøy Trelast. The exports were large enough that separate ships were used for the timber. In 1950, the store was taken over by Trygve Næss and the buses, mail and newspapers started coming daily. During the 1960s, the post office was closed and in 1970, the docks for the liners was demolished. The store ceased operations in 1978, but was replaced by a kiosk that remained until 1991. On 1 February 1958, the company Innherredsferja started a car ferry service from Venneshamn and Kjerringvik via Vangshylla to Ytterøy and Levanger. At first, the service operated five times a day to Kjerringvik and three times a day to Venneshamn, while there were to daily services to Ytterøy and Levanger. From 1 June 1964, the Vangshylla–Kjerringvik–Venneshamn Ferry started. After the road from Venneshamn to Kjerringvik opened in the last years of the 1960s, the ferry remained with a single service, connecting the two villages on Norwegian National Road 755. Four ferries were used on the service: Innherredsferja (1958–69), Skarnsund (1969–82), Mosvik (1982–87) and Skarnsund II (1987–91). The first meeting of local commercial and political interests to establish a bridge across Skarnsund was made in 1972. By 1983, it was formalized by the establishment of the company AS Skarnsundsbrua to finance construction. The Parliament of Norway passed the plans in 1986, and construction started two years later.
