When a traveler climbed the stairs on the 100 bus that runs between Borås and Gothenburg on Wednesday night, he was in for a worrying surprise: a strap and a glass lift, a form of suction plug, appeared to prevent the bus’s windshield from will be released.
– It is quite sick that these types of temporary repairs are being made, and that the bus is in transit and driving on stretches of the highway, says the traveler and adds:
– With Västtrafik’s resources, the least you can ask for is safe vehicles.
He says he often travels the distance.
– But this is the first time I’ve seen something like this.

“The bus must be out of service”
Västtrafik, which through its operations collaborates with a number of companies that manage bus and tram traffic, says the images do not show the standard they want to maintain.
– No, we don’t think this looks good. We understand that our travelers ask questions when they see solutions like this, says Kristian Lans, communications strategist at Västtrafik.
Kristian Lans says the bus in question on Wednesday night will be taken out of service as soon as possible. Why he ran with the makeshift repair from the start, have not yet received an answer.
– It will be necessary to have a conversation with the transport company, he says and refers to the company that operates the bus to Västtrafik.
He adds:
– The safety of our travelers is very important to us. We always have a dialogue with our partner companies to avoid this kind of thing, but we will have to take this matter further.
