Gaia Trafikk
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gaia Trafikk was the largest public transportation provider in Bergen and Os, Norway until it merged with HSD forming Tide.
Gaia was formed by the 1998 merger of Pan Trafikk, the bus company serving northern and southern Bergen, and Bergen Sporvei, the company serving Bergen's inner city. The route network covered most of Bergen, but the western suburbs were serviced by Hardanger Sunnhordlandske Dampskipsselskap (HSD).
Among the fleet of about 300 buses are 8 trolleybuses (two of them are dual-mode buses), making Bergen the only city in north-west Europe to have them.
Gaia Trafikk is merged with HSD forming the company "Tide". The general assembly at HSD approved the merger on June 29 2006, while the approval at Gaia came on July 17 [1].
