- Oslo’s city government says the Fornebu Metro line needs reliable mobile coverage to avoid a reputational problem.
- The requirement could add 55 million to 75 million kroner to the project’s cost.
A metro journey of up to 12 minutes without reliable mobile coverage could damage the Fornebu line’s reputation, according to Oslo’s city government.
The concern will add an estimated 55 million to 75 million kroner to the project’s cost. The city government argues that passengers should not lose mobile service during the journey.
The issue adds another expense to the Fornebu Metro project, with the debate framed around whether an underground trip without good coverage would be tolerable for passengers.
