Key Indicators

The key indicators presented in this chapter pertain to revenues, expenses, government allocations and production. The key indicators are offered for public transport as a whole and individually for each area of operations. The corona pandemic has had a major impact on the key indicators for 2020.

All economic indicators in the tables have been adjusted to 2020 kroner. All economic indicators back in time have been changed.

Passenger indicators

Since its inception in 2008, Ruter AS has presented growth in the number of public transport users year after year. In January and February 2020, customer growth was good and the market share was high. However, the closure in March caused travel conditions to change completely overnight. Travellers in Oslo and Viken showed great adaptability, complied with intrusive infection control recommendations last year and travelled less.

Revenues

Income per trip in 2020 was NOK 12.46, which is on par with the indicators from previous years.

Ticket revenues per journey are distributed differently, and regional buses, boats and trains with journeys that often extend over several zones naturally have the highest revenues per journey. Revenues in 2020 were highest for regional buses at NOK 11.61 per journey, then boats at NOK 11.58 per journey, while journeys by metro, tram and city bus were around NOK 9.80.

The journeys by metro, tram and city bus take place mainly within one zone and this explains the lower income per journey.

Allocations

Government allocations for Ruter increased by 56% from NOK 3.9 billion to NOK 6.2 billion. The large increase in allocations from the owners and state authorities was vital for maintaining normal operations in a year with a large drop in ticket revenues due to few customers on board while maintaining production. Ruter paid an average of NOK 45.30 per trip to Vy (Norwegian State Railway) in total from ticket revenues and price subsidies.

Efficiency

The costs per trip (excluding trains) in 2020 amounted to NOK 39.40, an increase from NOK 23.46 in 2019. This corresponds to an increase of 68%. The reason for this large increase is that there have been fewer trips in 2020 across which to share the costs. This has been in line with the authorities’ recommendations not to travel unless absolutely necessary so there has been plenty of space on board for those who had to travel.

Occupancy, average capacity utilisation, shows how full it is on board. It is generally desirable for Ruter’s capital equipment to carry many passengers, i.e. that occupancy rate is relatively high. In previous years, this has been 22%, which means that it can be cramped during rush hour, and that Ruter mostly can offer seating for most people outside rush hour.

In 2020, the occupancy rate fell by half (11%), which clearly shows that production has been maintained to provide a good distance between passengers on board.

*Records for the number of train journeys in 2016 were incorrect (too high) so we see a decrease in the number of journeys from 2016-2017. That means the number of passengers in 2017 is correct, while development from 2016-2017 is incorrect.
The method for counting passengers changed in 2012. The passenger numbers are therefore not comparable with previous years.
