  • Bos-Variant Ten Onder in Politiek Spel
    Bos-variant ten onder in politiek spel Door onze redacteur Egbert Kalse De beslissing de HSL aan te leggen was een politiek compromis. Oog voor alternatieven was er nauwelijks. Over de al dan niet bestaande gelijkwaardigheid van varianten. DEN HAAG, 10 SEPT. Het uiteindelijke tracé van de hogesnelheidslijn - met een tunnel van 900 miljoen gulden dwars door het Groene Hart - was ,,paars op zijn best'', zei toenmalig premier Wim Kok eind 1996 toen het kabinet dat tracé verdedigde in de Kamer. Maar gisteren en vandaag werd duidelijk dat voordat het paarse compromis er lag, het bijna tot een kabinetscrisis was gekomen. De tijdelijke commissie infrastructuurprojecten (de commissie-Duivesteijn) is gisteren begonnen met de verhoren over de besluitvorming rondom de hogesnelheidslijn van Amsterdam naar België. De vragen spitsten zich toe op de onmogelijkheid voor parlement en burgers om nog iets te veranderen aan het kabinetsvoornemen een spoorlijn door het Groene Hart aan te leggen. Zo kwam ook de Bos- variant aan de orde. Voormalig ambtenaar Willem Bos, die gisterenmorgen werd verhoord, bedacht halverwege de jaren negentig een aantal varianten voor het tracé, waaronder een variant waarbij het spoor niet door het Groene Hart, maar langs de snelwegen A13 en A4 zou lopen. Volgens oud-minister Annemarie Jorritsma (Verkeer, VVD) was in de onderhandelingen over het paarse regeerakkoord nog niet over het daadwerkelijke tracé gesproken. Wel sprak het kabinet zich in 1994 uit voor de voorkeursvariant, door het Groene Hart. ,,En ik heb daarna geen betere varianten gezien'', aldus Jorritsma. Al in 1994 zijn alle varianten globaal bekeken, zei ze. Een voorloper van de Bos-variant is toen al afgevallen mede omdat die variant door nieuwe woonwijken en bestaande dorpen zou lopen.
