Arriva wins traffic in Stockholm
Today it was announced that Arriva will take over the traffic on the local railway Saltsjöbanan and the light rail Tvärbanan and Nockebybanan from Veolia in august 2012 and on Roslagsbanan from january 2013.
They also won three bus depots.
The strange thing is how the contract is written. From 20:00 the entrepreneur can choose to drive bus instead of train and they will get paid per passenger (passenger = person that have payed a ticket) so there probably will be no "please, I have no ticket, can't you let me travel anyway?".
