The use of electric vehicles is growing and amount to about six percent of passing through the toll plaza. First half of this year passed 38,298 EVs through the tollbooth. About ein assumes that this is Trafikant Phones and discount, constitute EV EiT potential loss of income of between 2.5 million and 3.5 million on an annual basis.

As long free-scheme remains unchanged, will probably several usually acquired electric vehicle, and thus proceeds go ytterlegare down, it is stated in the note from VEGSELSKAP that follows the application.

– Men so has me also seen that hour rule, you only pay for a passage during ein hour, has actually led to equal, if not greater, “income” that electric vehicle use. It came a little surprisingly strange at us, admits Kallevåg, who say they can not lesa out of tala if there are people who act in a hundred-and-ninety on moors or whether it is special many who collected and brought to the buses on Føyno. First half it registered 40,357 suits payment in tollbooth on Spissøy who comes in under an hour rule.

– Time rule was the first instance interested in these details that should be collected and brought on Føyno. But me think that people will still have enough time to fetched or breast of Føyno, victory Kallevåg.

– No, there’s probably some discrepancies in cost terms in relation to copyright dei medical plans, he says. But Kallevåg see not lead to cuts in the list of projects that will be implemented.

– No, I have the impression that is an important issue GUIDES both among the business community, the politicians and among the inhabitants of our to complete the project. Especially no when me see the result of development of total municipality, so I think that bømlingane set price of getting new, fine roads, victory controlling owner.
