History
Team Trafikk was created in 2001 when the municipally owned Trondheim Trafikkselskap and the Kyrksæterøra-based and Orkla-owned Hemne og Orkladal Billag (HOB) were merged. Both the previous owners later sold their shares to the Norwegian State Railway subsidiary Nettbuss. After the take-over Nettbuss transferred the non-Trondheim operations to Nettbuss Trøndelag AS and kept the Trondheim operations in Team Trafikk.
