As a result of the corona crisis, Ruter has chosen to drop all ticket controls on subways, trams and buses in Oslo until 26 March.

– “For us, it is important to prevent the spread of infection on our means of transport in the best possible way. That is why we have chosen to suspend all ticket checks until new guidelines from the authorities arrive,” says Press Officer in Ruter, Øystein Dahl Johansen, to VårtOslo.

Occasionally empty buses and subway cars are one of the consequences of the coronavirus epidemic.

– “Our controllers will be put to other work. What exactly they will get as tasks, I’m not sure,” says Dahl Johansen.
