The bus fire caused a delay in the launch of toll collection
The unfortunate circumstances surrounding the serious bus fire at the Nobina plant in Sarpsborg on January 22 had serious consequences. This hit bus traffic hard and resulted in the management at Bypakke Nedre Glomma deciding to postpone the opening of the toll collection. The original plan was to start on January 24. It has now been agreed that the collection of fees will start on March 20 at 12.00:XNUMX.

There are many who are dissatisfied
Not everyone is happy with this turn of events. Traders from the region claim that higher fees will certainly discourage potential customers from outside the area covered by the new fee system from visiting retail outlets. Many service point owners also have the same opinion.
