Traveler organization Rover called last week in an exit plan to relax the corona restrictions in public transport. Now that society is gradually starting to move again and the corona measures are gradually being relaxed, Rover director Freek Bos believes that travelers should not avoid public transport. He said in an earlier report that travelers can 'just' travel as long as it is spread throughout the day. According to Freek Bos, the occupation during off-peak hours was also below 40 percent on most lines before the corona crisis.

"I really hope that from next week we will get the signal that you can become familiar with the train again." Public health remains leading according to Van Boxtel, but he sees more and more space to travel. “The number of admissions continues to decrease. It is going in the right direction. ” 

To date, travelers are called upon to travel by public transport only when necessary. NS CEO Roger van Boxtel has an interview with this morning NPOs Radio 1 program Speechmakers said that he expects the Outbreak Management Team to advise that next week 'normal' by train can be traveled again. He believes that there is more and more space to travel. However, everyone must continue to follow the precautions already taken, such as wearing a mouth mask. The NS is also doing everything it can to ensure the safety of passengers and employees, the same ventilation systems are being built in the trains as are now on the plane.

According to van Boxtel, the NS is doing everything it can to ensure safety for travelers: “We install ventilation in trains that are the same as in aircraft. Keep your distance and avoid crowds. The motto also applies to employees: you drive safely, or you do not drive. ”
