Hallo, Nou, wat een fantastische reis en bovendien met veel groen, zeker in een deel van Nederland dat we niet gewend zijn. Ik herhaal een fantastische reis. Rust goed uit of werk veilig. Een knuffel! Paulo Simão
This was an extremely interesting video. A thirty minute bus ride almost all of it on segregated busways. Proof that transport in the Netherlands is 'Not Just Bikes'. But one aspect of what I saw was very disappointing. I was expecting to see at the bus stops a lot of covered bike parking, just as you see at Dutch (and Swiss) train stations. Yet most stops seemed to have no bike parking at all, covered or uncovered!
Almere has six railway stations, with the buses connecting the stations together. The segregated bus network was designed so that for the majority of people living in Almere, a bus stop is no more than 500 metres away. So people will either cycle to the train station or walk and take the bus, but are unlikely to cycle to a bus stop. That probably explains the lack of bike racks at the bus stops.
@@PimH Thanks very much for this very enlightening inormation! I think your concluding sentence must be correct. I am British,.Here in Britain adequate bike parking at stations is still relatively uncommon. Bike parking at bus and tram stops is almost unknown! I contrast that with Sweden and Switzerland. In both countries you do see bike parking at bus and tram stops.
@@Fan652w you're very welcome. In more rural parts of the Netherlands, you will see bike racks by bus stops, as some parts of the country rely solely on buses for public transit. Switzerland and Sweden may have more reliance on buses as well since they are more sparsely populated, but not sure. Almere was designed initially as a commuter town for Amsterdam, which probably explains the focus on public transport in its urban design. Its population now exceeds 200k so very much a city in its own right by Dutch standards!
Eerlijk? daar wil je niet dood gevonden worden,men heeft eerst een busbaan aangelegd en daarna huizen er om heen gebouwd,het is er koud en kil, Almere heeft geen uitstraling,maar dat is mijn mening ;-) tussen haakjes een cabride van een bus of tram en trein blijft schitterend dank je wel voor het delen van deze video. ;-)
Trés bon vidéo de la ligne M2 🚍🎥 ou Very good video of the line M2 🚍🎥
