Ferry REGULA additional trips in summer 2024
FerryThe subsidiary of AS Tallinna Sadam, OÜ TS Laevad, signed an additional agreement with the Ministry of Regional Affairs and Agricultural. Based on the public passenger transport service, the Ministry will order additionally up to 375 trips with the ferry REGULA on the Virtsu-Kuivastu line from 20 June to 4 August 2024.
For the summer period of additional trips, TS Laevad will earn a fixed fee of EUR 676,890 plus a voyage fee of EUR 465 per trip. The maximum total amount for additional trips is EUR 851,265. In addition, the Ministry has the option to extend the order for an additional period until 18 August (included) by giving at least 14 days’ notice prior to the period starting. When extending the order for additional trips, an additional fee is added to the above.
In 2023, REGULA made 474 trips based on demand in the period from 1 June to 17 September.
Similar to the last four years, the additional trips are based on demand, and TS Laevad will perform additional voyages if at least 200 lane metres of vehicles have been left behind on the scheduled voyage, for the transfer of which a ticket for the scheduled voyage of the main vessel has been purchased, or if it is optimal to perform a dangerous cargo voyage with an additional vessel. No additional voyages shall be made at a time when REGULA is required to perform the function of a replacement vessel in the event of a breakdown of other TS Laevad ferries or if the vessel itself fails.
TS Laevad services the Virtsu-Kuivastu line with the ferries PIRET and TOLL and the Rohuküla-Heltermaa line with the ferries LEIGER and TIIU. The company also owns replacement ferry REGULA.
