It is important that there is an offer of public services also in areas where there are often no alternatives to the local bus, for example when students at youth education are to be at school.
The parties therefore agree to set aside a total of EUR 57 million in total. DKK in each of the years 2013-2017 to collective traffic in the outer areas. The aid shall be granted in order to support the development of new routes and so on from the pool the funds for operating aid, including start-up costs, can be sought from the puls; However, the State aid for operation may be granted at the highest level for a period of up to two years.
