  • The City of Lelystad Is Becoming a Logistical Force to Be Reckoned with in the Netherlands
    Lelystad. City of opportunities! The city of Lelystad is becoming a logistical force to be reckoned with in the Netherlands. With plenty of space and an excellent business climate, the Lelystad city council believes that the Flevoland provincial capital forms an attractive logistics hotspot, together with Almere and Zeewolde. This is underscored by its high classification in the ranking of logistics locations. “We've risen from 12th to 4th place. The number 1, Tilburg/Waalwijk, had better watch out,” says Janneke Sparreboom, the alderman responsible for Economic Affairs. Until recently, the city of Lelystad was known as a provincial capital that was distinctive for services and healthcare. Over the last few years, the profile has shifted to that of a city with distribution, storage and trade facilities. With the establishment of the XXL distribution centre of Spanish clothing manufacturer Inditex (Zara and Pull & Bear) at Lelystad Airport Businesspark (LAB) drawing other companies to the park, as well as the major expansion of bicycle manufacturer Giant and Port of Flevokust becoming operational, this is just the start. Alderman Sparreboom from the People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD) is also aware of other interesting projects in the pipeline, although understandably she regrets that she is unable to talk about them at this stage. “This is good for our economy, and good for employment - which increased grew by 900 full-time jobs in Lelystad last year,” explains Jan-Nico Appelman, Provincial Executive member from the Christian Democratic Alliance (CDA). The annual ranking of logistics hotspots, on which Lelystad-Almere-Zeewolde now surprisingly occupies fourth place, was created by 34 experts who ranked the 28 most important locations on the basis of six criteria.

All reports are also available on the Safety Board’s website: www.safetyboard.nl Photo cover: A. Oferta The Dutch Safety Board When accidents or disasters happen, the Dutch Safety Board investigates how it was possible for these to occur, with the aim of learning lessons for the future and, ultimately, improving safety in the Netherlands. The Safety Board is independent and is free to decide which incidents to investigate. In particular, it focuses on situations in which people’s personal safety is dependent on third parties, such as the government or companies. In certain cases the Board is under an obligation to carry out an investigation. Its investigations do not address issues of blame or liability. Dutch Safety Board Chairman: T.H.J. Joustra E.R.

Voor beide luchthavens treedt deze PKB in de plaats van het Structuurschema Burgerluchtvaartterreinen (SBL). Met de PKB wil de regering verdere ontwikkeling van de luchthavens Maastricht en Lelystad mogelijk maken. Zie daarvoor de toelichting op deel 3 van de PKB luchtvaartterreinen Maastricht en Lelystad van mei 2003. De PKB staat los van de aangekondigde nieuwe regelgeving voor de regionale en kleine luchthavens, waarin (onder meer) de decentralisatie en de normstel- ling (voor veiligheids- en milieuaspecten) zal worden vastgelegd. De procedure van de planologische kernbeslissing is beschreven in artikel 2a van de Wet op de Ruimtelijke Ordening. De planologische kernbeslissing is tot stand gekomen op basis van de op 29 november 2002 vastgestelde ontwerp planologische kernbeslissing (het kabinetsvoornemen, deel 1 van de PKB), de inspraakreacties hierop, de uitgebrachte adviezen, het bestuurlijk overleg met de betrokken provincies en gemeenten en de hoorzittingen. Deze zijn weerge- geven in het in mei 2003 uitgebrachte deel 2 van de PKB. Het kabinet heeft in mei 2003 een besluit (deel 3) genomen over de PKB luchtvaartterreinen Maastricht en Lelystad.

  • Dutch Spaghetti and Other Environmental Dishes
    Presentation by Reinier van Zutphen, National Ombudsman Netherlands Dutch spaghetti and other environmental dishes Complaints regarding environmental issues The Dutch ombudsman receives many complaints regarding projects with an environmental impact. Citizens want to know about the consequences for the environment and they would like to be protected from pollution and other damages. They also want to be involved in the decision-making process. Citizens feel the need to be involved in the choices about matters that affect them; to be heard. They want decisions and choices to be made with instead of over them. Citizens complain that: • the information about environmental decisions is unclear or inadequate • they are insufficiently involved in the decision-making process • the government does not take action against their nuisance. The Dutch ombudsman doesn't handle complaints about decisions of the government, policies or laws. It is the responsibility of the government to make the environmental decisions. In addition, citizens can submit decisions to the courts. We do however, handle complaints about these three aspects. An important question for us is: how does the government deal with the consequences of decisions that are harmful to citizens and the environment? We find it very important that the government is aware of the citizen's perspective and that citizens are taken seriously. We do not hesitate to point out our views to the government. We do this this by proactively interfering with important and extensive environmental issues. In this way, indirect influence can be exercised on decisions. Groningen and Lelystad Airport Two examples of environmental issues that we are involved in, are the gas extraction in Groningen and the plan to set up Lelystad Airport.

  • Lelylijn: Korte Geschiedenis, Kosten En Baten
    Lelylijn: korte geschiedenis, kosten en baten Zuiderzeelijn Het idee voor een nieuwe, snelle verbinding tussen Amsterdam, via Lelystad, Emmeloord, Heerenveen en Drachten naar Groningen stamt uit de langetermijnvisie Rail 21 van NS, uit 1989. Naast Intercity's en Sprinters zou hierover elk uur een rechtstreekse trein van Groningen via Schiphol, Rotterdam en Antwerpen naar Brussel rijden, en verder om beurten naar Londen en Parijs rijden. De aanvankelijke kostenraming (1999, Kompas voor het Noorden): 2,7 mld euro. Van Rail 21 is weinig terechtgekomen, onder meer door de liberalisatie van het spoor en de splitsing tussen NS en ProRail. Het idee werd, als Zuiderzeelijn onderdeel van de onderhandelingen tussen het Rijk en het Noorden over het stopzetten van de ISP-programma’s (Integraal Structuurplan Noorden des Lands). Sommige Noordelijke bestuurders, en vooral ook toenmalig minister van EZ Annemarie Jorritsma, zagen er het middel bij uitstek in om het Noorden uit de periferie te halen. Maar al snel werd duidelijk dat de lijn (veel) duurder zou worden dan 2,7 mld. Minstens 4 mld, en de snelste variant, de magneetzweefbaan, werd zelfs berekend op 9 mld euro (CPB, 2006). Vervolgens bleek eigenlijk niemand meer heel enthousiast. ProRail gaf de voorkeur aan de beter te exploiteren Hanzelijn, Drenthe was bang dat de dienstregeling voor de Drentse steden zou verslechteren, de Friezen vreesden voor de positie van Leeuwarden en het ministerie van EZ voelde er niets voor om een paar miljard extra op tafel te leggen. Alleen Groningen is altijd wel voorstander gebleven. Lelylijn De variant die het laatste jaar de ronde doet, onder de naam NoordLink en nu steeds vaker Lelylijn, is geen HSL maar een “normale” spoorlijn van dezelfde specificaties als de Hanzelijn.
