Public transport was managed through Østfold Kollektivtrafikk.[2][3]
County government
The Østfold county council (Norwegian: Fylkestinget) was made up of 35 representatives that were elected every four years. The council essentially acted as a Parliament or legislative body for the county and it met several times each year. The council was divided into standing committees and an executive board (fylkesutvalg) which met considerably more often. Both the council and executive board were led by the County Mayor (fylkesordfører) who held the executive powers of the county. The final county mayor was Ole Haabeth.
