Svelvik-Verket
From January 1, 2022, Brakar took over the operation of the Svelvik-Verket ferry service. Bastø Fosen is the operator of the ferry. The ferry is electric and can accommodate 30 cars or alternatively three trucks measuring 19.5 meters and some cars. The passenger capacity is 99 people, with seating available for 60 indoors.
The crossing takes approximately 5 minutes, and passengers have the option to remain in their cars during the journey if they prefer. It is not possible to pre-book a spot on the ferry.
The ferry is universally designed in collaboration with the Norwegian Association of Disabled (Norges Handikapforbund) and the Norwegian Association of the Blind and Partially Sighted (Blindeforbundet). All passenger facilities are located on one deck without stairs or elevators. On the deck, two parking spaces are reserved for people with reduced mobility, and the ferry is also equipped with an accessible toilet.
