What the buyer is looking for

Ekerö Municipality intends to procure a ferry connection on Ekeröleden for the period 2027-07-01 until the date the bypass opens (planned for 2030). For the past 30 years, Ekerö municipality has operated a ferry service that connects Ekerö and the southern town of Botkyrka municipality for different modes of transport. Ekerö municipality has agreements with the Swedish Transport Administration regarding ferry operations. The agreement with the Swedish Transport Administration expires on 30 June 2027 and cannot be extended further. By 2030, the E4 bypass will open, creating a faster connection between the municipality of Ekerö and the southern town for car and bus traffic. The time gain that the ferry gives today will mostly disappear for the paying customers if you can go to the southern town and Södertörn through the new tunnel. Both usage and willingness to pay among users will be…

… significantly reduced. Since Ekeröleden's business model is based on user fees, even a small reduction in the travel base will result in revenue no longer being able to cover costs. The agreement period is 2027-07-01 until 2031-06-30. The municipality of Ekerö has a notice period of twelve (12) months and the agreement is planned to be terminated when information is available about the final opening of the bypass so that the ferry service under this agreement ends two (2) to (3) weeks after the opening. Ekerö Municipality plans to award the procurement in December 2026.
