A spokesperson for Rijkswaterstaat reports that the service will ‘continue to spread’ tomorrow.
“That is no different than the past few days,” she explains. According to her, slipperiness must be taken into account tomorrow due to freezing of wet road sections and snow remains.
The advice for tomorrow is just like the past few days: go on the road well prepared. “Check the weather forecast and traffic information, of course, ensure sufficient distance from the vehicles in front, do not change lanes unnecessarily and give space to sliders and spreaders,” the spokesperson summarizes.
Rail problems in Amsterdam affect the rest of the province
According to a ProRail spokesperson, a winter timetable will also be used tomorrow. “There are many exchange disruptions, especially in Amsterdam,” the spokesperson explains. “That could really have an effect on train traffic in the rest of North Holland.”
ProRail reports that if snow falls again tomorrow, there is a risk of frozen points. Snow can also get between switches, causing them to no longer function properly.
If it rains and freezes, there is a possibility of frost on the overhead lines. According to ProRail, this can also cause disruptions.
“In order to make the timetable as reliable as possible, it has been decided to adjust the timetable,” the railway network manager reports.
No air traffic cancellations
Schiphol does not expect to have to cancel any flights tomorrow, because the weather conditions ‘look favorable enough’.
The airport is “closely monitoring the situation”, according to a spokeswoman. In recent days, hundreds of flights to and from Schiphol have been canceled every day due to winter weather.
