Last week enough was written about the heat, heat records and tropical schedules. No significant problems further down the road and, since aircraft were unable to take off from Schiphol Airport due to lack of kerosene, neither did the airspace. Due to this malfunction, the term 'climate neutral' flying got a new experience for the passengers.

The cooperative parent company of well-known insurers such as Centraal Beheer, Interpolis and Zilveren Kruis supports the transport sector with its own vision on mobility. A separate vision, because Zilveren Kruis managed to place a tender in the market for which no one subscribed. Perhaps the taxi sector does not fully understand the vision?

Major delays expected for train, tram, bus and metro.

Looking forward to the next week burqa ban because they can cause delays in public transport of at least half an hour. As of 1 August, employees may know for themselves whether they are addressing the Muslim with burqa or nikab or the balaclava wearer against the ban, but they may not be evicted from the train, bus, metro or tram. This is a task for the police that indicates that when reporting from public transport they are not within half an hour by the tram, train, metro or bus in question.
