budsentral

Norwegian to English Other Media / Multimedia
Context: newspaper deliveries.
"I en mail til Bydel St. Hanshaugen skriver Kristin Skogen Lund i Aftenposten at avisen vil innføre egne budsentraler som vil være egne lokaler avisbudene møter opp og budruter går ut ifra. Dermed vil problemet med avisbåndene som stadig blir liggende igjen på gaten forsvinne, for budene vil ikke åpne avispakkene utendørs lenge."
