  • Nota Van B&W
    Portefeuille J. Nieuwenburg Nota van B&W Auteurs A. Jansen, J. Stork, J. Bakker Telefoon 5113661, 5113540 E-mail: [email protected] SO/PM Reg.nr. 2007 / 233632 Te kopiëren: A Onderwerp B&W-vergadering van 29 januari 2008 Resultaten Tunnelstudie Zuidtangent 2007 Bestuurlijke context De eindrapportage van de haalbaarheidsstudie voor een lange ondergrondse verbinding voor de Zuidtangent in Haarlem is gereed (bijlage A). De onderliggende rapportages liggen ter inzage. De raad heeft in december 2006 medewerking toegezegd aan deze door de provincie in 2007 uitgevoerde haalbaarheidsstudie (233 / 2006). In de eindrapportage wordt geconcludeerd dat een ondergrondse verbinding voor de Zuidtangent in Haarlem haalbaar is, en dat een oplossingsrichting vanaf de Schipholweg, via het Houtplein en het centrum naar het NS-station hiervoor het meest doelmatig en kansrijk is. De verbinding is over de hele lengte ondergronds waardoor een forse verbetering optreedt van de kwaliteit van het (hoogwaardig) openbaar vervoer: de reistijd binnen de gemeente Haarlem wordt aanzienlijk bekort, terwijl betrouwbaarheid en comfort sterk verbeteren. Met aanvullende maatregelen kan het aantal busritten door de stad fors afnemen. Stadslijnen voor de lokale vervoerbehoefte blijven uiteraard in stand en worden waar nodig aangevuld. Er wordt bovendien geanticipeerd op toekomstige ontwikkelingen (als: aanleg tweede terminal Schiphol, Zuidas) en is het in de toekomst mogelijk om de verbinding te verlengen in noordelijke richting (Velsen / IJmuiden), alsmede aansluiting te zoeken op het hoogwaardig openbaar vervoer in de regio Amsterdam (Noord/Zuidlijn in het bijzonder). Thans wordt gevraagd in te stemmen met de conclusie uit de eindrapportage. Om te komen tot de daadwerkelijke aanleg van een tunnel dient op een aantal onderdelen een nadere uitwerking plaats te vinden.

Introduction 1.1 Purpose of the report Previous work in the POLYNET project has produced a wealth of information on: a) the spatial and functional characteristics of Northwest Europe’s major city-regions; and b) how advanced producer services firms organise their activities in space under conditions of globalisation. This report intends to clarify the policy implications of the changing spatial relations associated with the globalising service economy and to understand governmental organisations’ reactions to the challenge of organising and guiding growth in a polycentric urban region such as the Randstad. Confrontation of the two brings to light the possible mismatch between actual trends on the one hand and current policy strategies on the other, so producing an idea of the key issues that are not yet attended to.

  • Schiphol Airport Amsterdam: to Understand the Past Is to Secure Future Economic Growth
    Schiphol Airport Amsterdam: to understand the past is to secure future economic growth Paper 46th European Regional Science Association 30-03 August/September 2006 Volos, Greece Bart de Jong, Utrecht University, Faculty of Geosciences. Adres: P.O. Box 80115, 3508TC, Utrecht Netherlands. Tel: +31(0)30-2532738 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Schiphol Amsterdam, the main airport of the Netherlands, is a dynamic node, where the space of places and space of flows meet. The days that Schiphol was just an airport are long gone. This makes it a complex entity. The different governments concerned with the future development of Schiphol appear to be indecisive. Next to the government a growing number of public and private actors exists that try to influence spatial planning to their advantage. The rise of the network society has made the process of policy making much more difficult. Decision-making was once the domain of the governments, but nowadays it takes place in more informal, network type configuration. This year Schiphol exists 90 years. At the same time the government decided to extend the quantity and quality of the airport by letting it grow to 600 000 airplane movements per year. To illustrate this growth: in 2005 Schiphol had 400 000 airplane movements. The civil society and the opposition reacted furious. In a climate of distrust formed by a lack of communication, the Schiphol file seems complex and obscure: an administrative stalemate arises. In this paper I try to discover how this stalemate came into existence. The aim is to create and analyze a problem inventory.

  • JOINT PRESS RELEASE Aruba Happy Flow Launched at Aruba
    JOINT PRESS RELEASE Aruba Happy Flow launched at Aruba Airport An innovative passenger process, unique in the world A unique and innovative passenger pilot project was launched today at Aruba Airport: Aruba Happy Flow. The signal for the official launch was given by Aruban Prime Minister Mike Eman in the presence of Minister of Justice Arthur Dowers, Minister of Tourism Otmar Oduber, President & CEO Schiphol Group Jos Nijhuis, Senior Vice President KLM Security Services Ben Swagerman, CEO Aruba Airport Authority N.V. James Fazio, Senior VP Vision-Box Miguel Leitmann and other invitees. Aruba Happy Flow is an innovative passenger process in which the passenger is only required to show his or her passport once throughout the journey at the airport. The use of facial recognition then allows the passenger to proceed to check-in, drop off baggage, pass the border and board the aircraft, all without being asked to show a passport or boarding pass again. In order to do this, Aruba Happy Flow combines the public process of border control with the private passenger process at the airport. This is unique in the world and has been designed to streamline the passenger process, making it fast and secure. Cooperative effort Aruba Happy Flow is the result of a cooperative effort by Aruba, the Netherlands, Aruba Airport Authority N.V., Schiphol Group and KLM. Following a tender procedure, Vision Box was awarded implementation of the project. Prime Minister Mike Eman of Aruba says, "Happy Flow is an extremely innovative and important step in the transportation industry for passengers, not only for Aruba but worldwide.

  • Netherlands, Kingdom Of
    Case Study on Commercialization, Privatization and Economic Oversight of Airports and Air Navigation Services Providers Netherlands Background N.V. Luchthaven Schiphol operates Amsterdam-Schiphol airport under the „Schiphol Group‟ trade name. It was corporatized as a limited company in the early 1950s under the form of a public company owned by the Dutch Government and the municipalities of Amsterdam and Rotterdam. Schiphol Group also controls the second and third busiest Dutch airports, respectively Rotterdam and Eindoven. But the latter handle less than one million passengers annually, versus more than 45 million for Amsterdam-Schiphol. The Schiphol Group used to be dispensed from paying the corporation tax applied in the Netherlands. A complaint by the European Commission arguing that this exemption was an unfair advantage given to the Dutch airport in comparison with its European competitors led the Dutch government to change this policy in 2002. Air navigation services provision is ensured by Luchverkeersleiding Nederland (LVNL), which was traditionally an agency within the Dutch Civil Aviation Administration. Commercialization/privatization: Airports There have been talks and consultations to privatize Schiphol Group during the past 20 years, and the necessary legislation to make this effective has been implemented. But these did not result in the effective privatization of Schiphol (see section on economic oversight of airports), which remained owned by the State of the Netherlands (76 per cent) and the cities of Amsterdam and Rotterdam (22 per cent and 2 per cent respectively) until the late 2000s. The Schiphol Group started with the pursuit of strategic alliances with other major European hub airport operators.

A performance study is performed on three criteria: the bus station’s throughput of traffic flow, or: coping with capacity, the safety on the bus lane and quality of the infrastructure as perceived by its user. There is a projected growth of public transportation through Schiphol Plaza when looking at increasing numbers of air travelers, employees and use of especially the HOV (high quality public transportation) bus lines. There is no knowledge yet on how long the current bus station layout can cope with this growth. This needs to be made clear and a possible solution for appearing bottlenecks needs to be provided. Methodology The research on the bus station performance requires methodology that fulfills the requirements of providing performance scores on current and future scenarios for its capacity, quality and safety. For capacity scores it is determined to use average bus delays as suffered at the bus station as units, where also a percentage of buses exceeding the set threshold of 30 seconds delay is taken as a second scoring quantification.
