  • •The Norwegian Public Roads Administration has, in connection with the preparation of this contract, carried out a

  • •machines and vehicles that can be used for washing/cleaning tunnels. That's why
  • •only requirements for emission free light vehicles and goods vans.
  • •The distances between the tunnels also make it very difficult to transport any
  • •electric machines such as sweeping and flushing vehicles. There is also a need for enough power from
  • •flushing vehicles for washing the tunnel. To achieve such power, we rely on diesel powered machines.
  • •Transport of personnel and goods
  • •The requirements for all light vehicles, including vehicles used in the contract, shall be 100%
