You have spent 1.6 billion on buses instead of trains since 2019

Between 2019 and 2025, Vy has spent 1.6 billion Norwegian kroner on bus services for trains. In 2025 alone, the amount was 314 million kroner.

Fjorårets tall er mer enn dobbelt så mye som i 2024, og mer enn i de seks foregående årene, ifølge Teknisk Ukeblad.

– Det er en økning i 2025 og 2026 fordi det generelt er mer vedlikehold og fornyelse, særlig rundt Oslo-området, skriver Bane Nors kommunikasjonsrådgiver Hilde Marie Braaten i en epost.

Det er de planlagte bruddene som fører til de største kostnadene, imens de uplanlagte bruddene skjer oftere.

I 2025 var det 95 planlagte brudd, og 1173 ikke-planlagte brudd.

– De uforutsette bruddene kan eksempelvis være én time og bare berøre et par avganger, sier Vys kommunikasjonssjef Siv Egger Westin.

De planlagte bruddene skyldes ofte vedlikeholdsarbeid på infrastrukturen utført av Bane Nor. 80 prosent av Vys buss-kostnader som knytter seg til de planlagte bruddene dekkes av Bane Nor.
