What’s the most fun thing to do on a summer’s weekend? A city trip! But what’s the NS’s favourite hobby? Working on the tracks. 😢
That is why, for three weeks starting June 17, no trains will run to and from Leeuwarden, one of the most important train routes in the north of the country.
The result? Travellers can expect extra travel time between 15 minutes and an hour. 😀
Replacement buses and cancelled routes
From Monday, June 17, until Tuesday, July 9, no trains will run:
-
between Leeuwarden and Harlingen Haven,
-
between Leeuwarden and Stavoren,
-
between Leeuwarden and Akkrum.
From June 17 to June 20 and on July 9, Leeuwarden will be fully inaccessible by train. As a result, the last big connection to Groningen also falls away, NU.nl reports.
If you’re planning on travelling towards Leeuwarden during the three affected weeks, you can expect to deal with replacement buses or alternate routes.
As always, the NS advises travellers to keep an eye on their travel app. 📲
