The ministry of Infrastructure and Environment, with additional asphalt to anticipate the recovery of the economy of the country.

Less crisis means more workers, more prosperity and therefore more people on the road. Minister Schultz van Haegen emphasized that accessibility is a big priority, but expected at the same time an increase of the number of files of about 2.5 percent. FYI: the filezwaarte declined in 2013 by 8 percent.

The main solution where Schultz van Haegen is, is the placement of additional asphalt. The ministry gets a total of 9.2 billion euro to spenden and used a whopping 2.3 billion for the road network.

What is with all that money exactly?

To start with, there is a total of 278 kilometres of roads constructed. In addition, there should be considerable progress to be made in the Blankenburgtunnel at Vlaardingen, the Ring of Utrecht and the A13-A16. When that final project is the A13 from Rotterdam The Hague Airport is directly connected to the A16 motorway, at the height of the Terbregseplein.

Further the A4 between Delft and Schiedam were opened for traffic at last we can stripes pull on the wegverbreding of the A15 motorway from the Maasvlakte to the Vaanplein junction. Jolly good fun!

Besides the extra asphalt set the ministry as we already knew in on self-propelled and interacting with one another cars. Also, secretary of state Mansfeld is hard to make for a better public transport network, which should result in new agreements with parties such as the NS and ProRail. The focus is primarily on quality, and then quantity.
