Our mission
Our mission
Our mission is to lay the foundation for a comprehensive, rational, and market-adapted public transportation system in Oslo and Akershus. We aim to create an attractive offer for the residents of the region and contribute to a more sustainable societal development. A society where people always travel together whenever possible, and alone only when necessary.
We fulfill our mission through the procurement, development, planning, coordination, and marketing of public transport services. Within the given financial constraints, our services should meet the transport and climate policy goals set by the Oslo municipality and Akershus county for public transportation in our area.
Partners
The public transport is operated by various companies that have contracts with us. Ruter therefore does not own any buses, trams, ferries, or subway trains. Sporveien Subway AS and Sporveien Trams AS are fixed contract partners, while bus and ferry contracts are awarded through competitive tendering.
