considerable inconvenience
Neherkade closes around 9:30am. Diversion signs will be installed as soon as possible. A dynamic route panel is turned on at the same time.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the closure. Road users should take detours and expect extra travel time and congestion. Signposts and dynamic route panels indicate detours. A traffic controller will also be deployed.

drinking water supply
The drinking water supply is uninterrupted and safe to use. However, drinking water in the Spoorwijk and Laak Central districts may come out of taps with less pressure.
