Almost 1,100 km
Rain, accidents and usual road congestion made for the busiest morning rush hour of the year so far on Tuesday.
Tuesday morning it is normally already very busy on the road, but now there was also rain and even some snow here and there. Plus, spring break is over. So good ingredients for the busiest morning rush hour of the year so far. The peak was just after eight o’clock. Then there was 1,093 kilometers of traffic jams, says a spokesperson for the ANWB. “The peak is now behind us,” said the spokesman. Around nine o’clock, traffic jams had dropped to less than 1,000 kilometers.
There were accidents on Tuesday morning on the A28 towards Utrecht near Den Dolder and on the A4 towards Amsterdam near Zoeterwoude-Rijndijk. A truck was on fire near Urmond on the A2 towards Maastricht. Tuesday by definition produces a busy traffic picture, because people work more often in the office that day.
