Disruptions on the Dutch railway during the May holidays


Train traffic around Tilburg is at a standstill for two full weeks, because work is being done on the track between the city and Breda and between Tilburg and Vught. Replacement local and express buses will run, but travelers should allow half an hour of extra travel time.

Train traffic to and from Zwolle will also be temporarily stopped, from Monday to Wednesday, because a viaduct is being constructed. Zwolle is an important hub for traffic to the northern provinces. There are no trains between Zwolle and Kampen and between Zwolle and ‘t Harde on Thursday and Friday. Replacement buses are also deployed there.

From Monday to Saturday there is also work in and around Amsterdam Central Station and Amsterdam Bijlmer. The NS advises travelers in Amsterdam to take the metro or travel from other places via Amsterdam South.
