Hanzelijn

Hanzelijn

The Hanzelijn (Hanseatic line) is a new Dutch railway line connecting Lelystad to Zwolle. It will provide the currently missing rail link between Flevoland and the north-east of the Netherlands. Work on the line has started in january 2007, and is planned for completion by the end of 2012. Two new railway stations are to be built, one in Dronten and one in Kampen. The maximum speed on most of the line will be 200 km/h.

Debate still rages on the rail connection between the heavily populated Randstad area and the rural north of the country. The proposed Zuiderzeelijn project still awaits funding, and the Hanzelijn link will not provide the journey time reductions that northern lobby groups are aiming for.
