History

The company was founded on 7 April 1938 to conduct transport on the newly opened road from Narvik to Harstad. In 1941 it started the route Narvik–Fauske–Bodø in cooperating with Saltens Bilruter.[2] In 1947 the company extended the service to Fauske to include routes to the Nordland Line, which had opened to Lønsdal Station.[3]
