Summary (in Dutch) Summary (in Dutch) Summary (in Dutch) Summary (in Dutch)
De verkeersdrukte op de Nederlandse snelwegen neemt de afgelopen jaren enorm
toe. De “Stedendriehoek”, bestaand uit de gemeenten Deventer, Apeldoorn, Zutphen,
Lochem, Epe, Brummen en Voorst, ondervind steeds meer hinder van deze toename.
Het toenemende fileprobleem op de A1 en A50 is een duidelijk gevolg van deze
toename.
Na een uitgebreide analyse is duidelijk geworden dat kijkend naar mobiliteit iets
moet gaan gebeuren. De afgelopen jaren is de verkeersintensiteit enorm gestegen,
met alle gevolgen van dien. De snelwegen de A1 en de A50, die van oost/west en
noord/zuid de “Stedendriehoek” doorkruizen, kennen veel fileproblematiek. Tevens
zijn er veel opstoppingen op de regionale wegen naar deze snelwegen toe.
Bijkomend is de milieuproblematiek die het toenemende verkeer met zich mee
brengt. De coöperatie regio “Stedendriehoek”, bestaande uit zes gemeenten in de
driehoek Apeldoorn, Zutphen en Deventer, heeft als onderdeel van de aanpak van de
mobiliteitsproblematiek geld beschikbaar gesteld voor de mogelijke realisatie van
drie Park & ride locaties.
Om een gedegen advies te kunnen geven is referentiemateriaal van groot belang.
Naar aanleiding hiervan is gekeken naar een vergelijkbare reeds bestaande Park &
ride locatie in Groningen (Noorddijk).
Daarnaast is als onderdeel van de opdracht een bezoek gebracht aan Brussel. Tijdens
deze excursie hebben wij een bezoek gebracht aan diverse Park & ride locaties in en
rondom Brussel, waaronder de Delta Park & ride. Dit is als bruikbaar
referentiemateriaal meegenomen in ons advies.
Speciaal hebben wij gekeken naar omvang, openbaar vervoer mogelijkheden,
uitstraling, en faciliteiten.
Naar aanleiding van deze analyse is een advies opgesteld. Hieruit is gebleken dat de
financiële middelen voor drie Park & ride locaties aanwezig zijn. Wij adviseren de
regio “Stedendriehoek” om deze drie Park & ride locaties te realiseren. Uit onderzoek
blijkt dat meer opties om over te stappen op openbaar vervoer een grotere
doelgroep bereikt. Voor de invulling van de Park & ride locaties is gekozen voor een
eenvoudige inrichting. Deze basis faciliteiten bestaan uit voldoende parkeerplaatsen,
een veilige uitstraling, goede informatievoorziening en de mogelijkheid tot het
gebruik van openbaar vervoer (trein en/of bus). Om het gebruik te optimaliseren is
het van belang een hoge frequentie te hanteren voor het openbaar vervoer.
De Park & ride die met de hoogste prioriteit gerealiseerd moet worden is Deventer-
Zutphen ,waarna zo spoedig mogelijk Apeldoorn-beekbergen en Deventer-oost
ontwikkeld worden.Uit de analyse is gebleken dat de frequentiële files zich veelal
vormen bij Apeldoorn-Beekbergen, met name in de rijrichting Enschede-Randstad.
De Park & ride Deventer-Zutphen bevind zich net voor het probleempunt Apeldoorn-
beekbergen. Realisatie van deze Park & ride zal leiden tot een afname van de
verkeersdrukte, met name in de spits.
5
Daarnaast zal door de realisatie van de Park & ride Deventer-Zutphen de
verkeersdrukte in de binnenstad van Deventer en Apeldoorn aanzienlijk kunnen
afnemen. Dit betekent een verbetering van de verkeersveiligheid en de leefbaarheid
in deze stadscentra.

IntroductionIntroductionIntroductionIntroduction
This is an advice for the 14 members of the region counsel of the “Stedendriehoek”.
The seven municipalities of the region “Stedendriehoek” want to create a good
collaboration between the municipalities. The municipalities have been working
several years now to create a good collaboration, but the foundation of the problem
is mobility. If municipalities want to work together they need a good accessibility. In
this advice we will show the possibilities of the Park & ride areas in the region
“Stedendriehoek” and there will be given an advice for building the Park & ride areas.
At the end of the advice there will be one Park & ride area highlighted to support our
advice.
Sketch of a situationSketch of a situationSketch of a situationSketch of a situation The number of travellers on the A1 motorway has increased in the last few years.
Primarily the heavy goods vehicle traffic has increased a lot. This is because the
“Stedendriehoek” is located in the centre of the Netherlands. This means all the
traffic from Germany and further abroad to the agglomeration of Western Holland
needs to travel though the “Stedendriehoek”. This in combination with nowadays
increasing commuter traffic the traffic intensity is increasing. A logical consequence
is that there are many traffic-jams on the A1 motorway, especially during rush
hours. Most of the traffic-jams appear on the same places. These places are:
Barneveld – Hengelo and Deventer – Beekbergen. There are many solutions how to
solve these problems on the A1 motorway. Many of them are not functional and
some are just too expensive. A good combination of functionality and affordability
are the Park & ride areas, which we use in our advice.
What is Park & ride?What is Park & ride?What is Park & ride?What is Park & ride? A Park & ride area is an area where travellers can park their cars and change their
transportation mode to public transportation. There are many parking spots for the
travellers to park their car and it is in comparison very cheap. On some Park & ride
areas there are facilities for the travellers, which they can use.
When is Park & ride needed?When is Park & ride needed?When is Park & ride needed?When is Park & ride needed? Park & ride areas can be a part of the solution for the problems defined as above.
Park & ride areas is not a solution on it’s own. Park & ride areas will decrease the
number of travellers only a little bit, but it is a good start. The effects will be more
visible in the centre of the cities involved instead of the A1 motorway. The solution
of the Park & ride areas will decrease the emission of CO2, because more travellers
use public transport.
When is Park & ride successful?When is Park & ride successful?When is Park & ride successful?When is Park & ride successful? Park & ride areas are successful when they are used correct with relation to the
location, size, promotion, facilities and safety. The location is the most important
aspect for the success of the Park & ride area. A Park & ride area needs to be located
7
near a motorway and a railway for the best use of public transportation. The size is
determent by the location and how many travellers will use the Park & ride areas. The
promotion is also a key component for letting travellers know there is a Park & ride
area is there. The facilities are getting more important if the size of the Park & ride
area is larger. The safety of the Park & ride areas should always be maintained as
good as possible.

1.1.11.1.11.1.11.1.1 IntroductionIntroductionIntroductionIntroduction When an advice has to be given concerning the Park & ride concept in the region
“Stedendriehoek”, the most important issue is: what is already going on in the
region. The success of a Park & ride or transferia is depending on the present
situation or present developments and planned developments.
The region “Stedendriehoek” already picked the locations for the Park & ride areas.
The situation of the surrounding areas will be treated in this chapter. Is there a
relation between developments, plans and the Park & ride concepts? If so, what is the
relation and how can it help the Park & ride to be successful? Al this information will
be basic information that will lead to a final advice.
But not only the developments need attention. We also look at the facts and numbers
of the region “Stedendriehoek”, because this will give a reliable indication of how the
present situation is composed.
1.1.2 1.1.2 1.1.2 1.1.2 Start ofStart ofStart ofStart of To start of there will be looked at the picked locations. The locations that according
to the region “Stedendriehoek” are good locations for a Park & ride. Based on the
locations we will look at relevant facts and developments, which of course take place
close to the strategic points or picked locations for the Park & ride idea.
Shown on the map is that the Park & ride areas will probably be realized close to
Apeldoorn/ Beekbergen, Deventer and Deventer/ Colmschate.

1.1.31.1.31.1.31.1.3 Apeldoorn/ BeekbergenApeldoorn/ BeekbergenApeldoorn/ BeekbergenApeldoorn/ Beekbergen
The word relevant has been mentioned before in this chapter. This is because it is
important to just look at relevant information. For instance, information concerning
traffic (projects), the areas and traffic expectations for the future.
An idea for the Park & ride near Beekbergen or Apeldoorn is based on the fact that
the A1 that passes Beekbergen/ Apeldoorn is getting more and more congested.
Sources tell us that in the year 2030 the traffic situation, if the region
“Stedendriehoek” is not going to do anything to improve it, will be totally
uncontrollable.
Beside the growing traffic numbers on the A1, the centre of Apeldoorn has his own
growing traffic numbers. Many people still use their car to get in to the centre of
Apeldoorn. This results in an unwanted situation, because of the limited parking
places. Because of this people are parking their car on unwanted places, which gives
a messy appearance.
The A1 location is also picket because it is the road that is heading for the
agglomeration of Western Holland. Towards the agglomeration of Western Holland,
the roads only getting more occupied.
11
1.1.41.1.41.1.41.1.4 Deventer, Deventer/ ColmschateDeventer, Deventer/ ColmschateDeventer, Deventer/ ColmschateDeventer, Deventer/ Colmschate
Traffic jams between Deventer and Zuthpen are commonly known. And so it is quite
urgent to get a practical "solution" for this problem. The Park & ride idea would
contribute in a possible solution. Besides that one of the tranferia is located next to
the A1 motorway, the importance of that has been explained before. Also the
possibility of a train station makes the location interesting for a Park & ride area. At
the end the possible expansion of the industrial area probably makes a Park & ride
on those locations more feasible.
1.1.51.1.51.1.51.1.5 Relevant facts and developments (sources and explanation)Relevant facts and developments (sources and explanation)Relevant facts and developments (sources and explanation)Relevant facts and developments (sources and explanation) An interesting source that clarifies a lot of issues concerning the project is: ‘’beter
bereikbaar “Stedendriehoek”. In this file the regional problems with traffic are
treated and the possible solutions.
This file has been developed by the region “Stedendriehoek” and for the region
“Stedendriehoek”. The most important message of this file is the upcoming growth.
Quote: House-construction, increasing activity in the region and the growth of
through traffic are all having their influence on the public road occupation. Also
financial possibilities for a curtain Park & ride area are clear. There is (financial) room
for such developments.
In the file ‘’beter bereikbaar Stedendriehoek’’ there is a map, which shows an
interesting difference in priority concerning roads. All the Park & ride locations are
on a high priority location.

To get a more specified look at the infrastructural ambitions of the region
“Stedendriehoek” the source: ‘’Netwerkanalyse stedendriehoek’’ is quite accurate and
useful. For instance an interesting known fact for the Deventer Park & ride location is
the possible development of the A338 from Zuthpen to Deventer.

1.2 1.2 1.2 1.2 Mobility issuesMobility issuesMobility issuesMobility issues
There are many cars on the roads in the region “Stedendriehoek” during the rush
hours. There are many heavy goods vehicle traffic and cars for personal use on the
A1 motorway and on the N348 (Deventerweg). This is a huge problem for travelers,
transport and businesses and costs them a lot of time and money.
Every year the traffic jams on the A1 motorway between Apeldoorn and Deventer
cause an economical damage between €5.000.000 and €10.000.000(intern. IKCRO)
These are the main mobility problems in the region “Stedendriehoek” and these
problems are getting bigger. The pressure on the A1 motorway is increasing, more
trucks and cars are using the motorway every year, and traffic jams are growing in
numbers, length, appear earlier, and dissolve later. This is the cause of the whole
idea of ‘rekeningrijden’ (road pricing), carpooling, and Park & ride areas.
These measures are made to decrease the pressure on the motorways in the
Netherlands. The ‘Regionale Structuurvisie Stedendriehoek 2030’ was developed by
the Region “Stedendriehoek” to optimize the chain mobility in the region.
Users of the A1 have different mobility needs. For the biggest part of the lorry traffic
that crosses the region “Stedendriehoek” it is important that they can move fast.
They do not need exits on the motorway A1, because exits are the number one
causers of traffic jams.
On the other side, users of the motorway A1 that live in the region “Stedendriehoek”
the exits are necessary.
Regarding facilities around the A1 there are also different needs. Lorry traffic needs
parking places that are big enough so they can stay there. Safety is also important in
case they spent the night there. For people who use the A1 by car for long distances
it is nice when they have the possibility to eat and drink something when they take a
break on a parking place. People who live in the region do not need any facilities
around the motorway A1.
Another mobility issue is public transport. In the region “Stedendriehoek” we know
bus transport and train transport. These two are seperated in different parts.
Train transport exist out of fast trains, stop trains and regional trains (Syntus), by
bus transport we know regional busses and city busses.
In case of public transport the needs are also different. Students who use the bus or
train do not really care about facilities in the bus or train. Tourist do care about
facilities and espacially about the information facilities. Bussines men care about
space and a clean bus or train and a well working timetable.
A big frequency in public transport is important for everybody, because it reduces
the traveling time.
By the realization of a Park & ride it is important to look at these themes in
combination with the expected users.

The mobility of the region “Stedendriehoek” is very important and complex. There
are many concerned stakeholders. Many of them are in an early stage involved and
most of them are relevant for the achievement of the project. Below will be explained
how the stakeholders are involved, starting with the most important stakeholders.
1.3.11.3.11.3.11.3.1 MoMoMoMost important stakeholdersst important stakeholdersst important stakeholdersst important stakeholders The most important stakeholders in the area are: Region “Stedendriehoek”
(Municipalities: Deventer, Zuphen, Apeldoorn, Voorst, Brummen and Lochem),
travellers NS/Pro Rail, companies located within the “stedendriehoek” (companies will
provide a large portion of the travellers) and Connexxion/Syntus. These stakeholders
are involved at the realisation of the Park & ride areas and provide the basic
transportation for the travellers.
First of all, the municipalities want to create a good cooperation between the
municipalities Deventer, Zutphen and Apeldoorn. There are other municipalities
involved with rural areas needed to connect the cities. These municipalities created
the region “Stedendriehoek” to improve the co-operation between the municipalities.
So the region “Stedendriehoek” exists primarily of the 14 members of the region
counsel of the municipalities and their task is to analyse the area and search for
solutions to create (in this case) a better mobility. Area “Stedendriehoek” has to
analyse the different places for the Park & ride areas and will make the best choice to
realise a Park & ride area. The area “Stedendriehoek” will have to analyse how many
travellers will use the Park & ride areas, how many parking places will be needed,
how much it will cost, what facilities are needed, what kind of public transportation
is the best choice, the accessibility, condition of the infrastructure, location of the
Park & ride areas, companies located near the Park & ride areas and ways to promote
the Park & ride areas. When the members of the region counsel have analysed all the
possibilities they need to present it to the municipalities of the region
“Stedendriehoek”. The municipalities in the area will make the final decisions.
The companies near the Park & ride areas will provide a large percentage of the
travellers who will use the Park & ride areas (see map on next page for locations of the companies). Therefore the companies will need a good connection with the Park
& ride areas. The companies near the Park & ride areas will also determine how many
parking places are needed for these areas.
NS/ Prorail and Connexxion/Syntus will provide the basic public transportation for
the travellers using the Park & ride areas. The municipalities of the region
“Stedendriehoek” will discuss if there are more trains and busses needed and if they
need new stopping-places. These stakeholders are the foundation of a smooth
working Park & ride area.
16
1.3.21.3.21.3.21.3.2 Important stakehoImportant stakehoImportant stakehoImportant stakeholderslderslderslders The important stakeholders are Ministry of Transport, Central government and the
Provinces. The Ministry of transport will provide the financial aspects when they
agree with the plans, the central government has made laws the municipalities have
to obey and the provinces has to examine the municipalities will follow these laws.
When the plans are made, the Ministry of Transport will have to approve the plans
for the final financial aspects of the plans. They will receive the plans of the staff
members of the municipalities of the region “Stedendriehoek” and when the base is
right, they will attribute the finances to the region “Stedendriehoek”.
The central government has made policies for everyone to obey. The region
“Stedendriehoek” also has to obey these policies and the province has to survey this.
This will be taking care of by getting approval of the province after sending the plans
to them. The central government will provide the funding through the Ministry of
Transport.
1.3.31.3.31.3.31.3.3 Least importaLeast importaLeast importaLeast important stakeholdersnt stakeholdersnt stakeholdersnt stakeholders Least important stakeholders are EU, Client (tourists), Airport service and
inhabitants. These stakeholders are the least important for the realisation for the
new Park & ride areas, but these stakeholders have requirements to hold reckon
with. The EU has environmental requirements and the tourists have requirements for
good information services and quick transport and the inhabitants who live near the
Park & ride areas need as less inconvenience as possible. The airport service has no
requirements besides enough people to transport to the airport, which is a small
portion of the travellers.
17
The EU is dealing with the global warming and is trying to decrease it as much as
possible. They are trying to do this with global environmental policies. Park & ride
areas are developed for reducing emissions (and solving mobility problems), so there
will be no difficulties in this case.
Tourists will travel a lot, so a convenient solution will be making use of the Park &
ride areas. These stakeholders just need the basics of a working Park & ride area.
They need an easy payment for their tickets and good information services to let
them know there is a Park & ride area here.
Participation of inhabitants and private stakeholders is an absolute basic condition.
That means that the attitudes on individual and social level play an important role in
the selection of the different types of traffic that will become available besides the
basic public transport. However, the traffic system will have a clear impact on the
environment and the economy. These impacts can lead to feedback reaction on the
individual and political level in the future.
1.3.41.3.41.3.41.3.4 ConclusionConclusionConclusionConclusion There is made a difference in importance of the stakeholders in this paragraph. The
importance is based on how they are involved in the process of realizing the Park &
ride areas. The stakeholders who are taking the initiative for creating the Park & ride
areas will be called most important stakeholders. This should not be mistaken,
because all the stakeholders are very important and there should be hold reckon
with every stakeholder.

1.4 Legislation and policy cycles1.4 Legislation and policy cycles1.4 Legislation and policy cycles1.4 Legislation and policy cycles
1.4.11.4.11.4.11.4.1 European legislationEuropean legislationEuropean legislationEuropean legislation There are several European laws about spatial planning and environmental issues
that concerns the Netherlands.
Most of these rules and laws are about environmental issues. There are not many
regulations and laws around spatial planning. The reason for this is the different
geographical situation in each country in the European union.
The rules that count for the environment are sometimes not really relevant for the
Netherlands because of the highly developed environmental situation in the
Netherlands. There are already rules and laws that secure the environmental
situation in the Netherlands. In some cases the European legislation is working
against the realization of projects and improvement of the environment in the
Netherlands.
An exception is European legislation that concerns crossing border spatial planning.
In these cases it is important to have a legislation for the concerning countries.
1.4.21.4.21.4.21.4.2 European policy cyclesEuropean policy cyclesEuropean policy cyclesEuropean policy cycles Spatial policy cycles do not belong to the formal competences of the European
Union. However the European union accepted the European spatial developing
prospective (Europees Ruimtelijk Ontwikkelingsperspectief, EROP) in may 1999. It is
an informal policy, created by de European commission for the national spatial policy
of the members of the European union.
Concerning content of this policy the following spearheads:
• Provide an analysis of international developments and European
administration, concerning national spatial planning, developments and
interest.
• Promote knowledge developments concerning common problems. For
instance general city center problems.
• To offer a spatial frame. This spatial frame can be uses for the developing of
the European sector administration.
• To offer a spatial frame for cooperation between European countries those
are not yet part of the EU.
There are also international projects in which the members of the European union
are working together. In these projects are regions, like the region “Stedendriehoek”,
also active.
Another policy in which members of the European union are working together are
the projects around means of transfer. An example is the connection between the
conurbations of Western Holland in the Netherlands to the west of Germany. This
transfer connection also passes the region ‘’Stedendriehoek’’.
19
Another one is the developing of international train transport between the members
of the European union. For the Netherlands this means train connections with
Germany, Belgium and France.
1.4.31.4.31.4.31.4.3 Legislation and policy cycles NetherlandsLegislation and policy cycles NetherlandsLegislation and policy cycles NetherlandsLegislation and policy cycles Netherlands The Dutch government had an advice establishing called “ Mobiliteit en beleid” in
1999. The message based on the documents makes clear that the government has to
do something. The problem on the highway, like for example traffic jams will
develop very fast. A Dutch quotation that makes the problem clear is:
“In het ruimtelijke ordeningsbeleid van de rijksoverheid, en van lagere overheden, speelt het streven naar verkorting van de afstanden tussen locaties een belangrijke rol. Dit moet enerzijds leiden tot een beperking van de behoefte aan mobiliteit en anderzijds een verschuiving mogelijk maken van autogebruik naar openbaar vervoer en fiets” In this sentence it is clear that they know there is a problem with mobility. The Dutch
government made a few possible solutions. One of the possible solutions is a Park &
ride area. When you place a Park & ride area, there are a couple of substantial laws.
Below will be an overview of important substantial laws.
Wet ruimtelijke ordening (Law of spatial planning) Wet milieubeheer (Law of environment management) Wet bereikbaarheid en mobiliteit (law of accessibility and mobility)
A possible place for a Park & ride area must comply with several laws. An example of
the law of environment management is sound nuisance. A Park & ride area causes a
lot of inconvenience. A Park & ride place cannot be realized near by a neighborhood
for example. (Source: http://www.st-ab.nl/wetten/0411_Wet_bereikbaarheid_en_mobiliteit.html)
1.4.41.4.41.4.41.4.4 Regional legislationRegional legislationRegional legislationRegional legislation The legislation that concerns the region “Stedendriehoek” is the legislation that
concerns the Netherlands. This legislation is described in another part of this
chapter, in combination with the legislation in Belgium.
The fact that the legislation in the Netherlands is the legislation that concerns the
region “Stedendriehoek” is the reason for a practical problem for the region
“Stedendriehoek”. Sometimes it is difficult to realize policy cycles, because the region
“Stedendriehoek” does not have any authority. It is only a corporation that makes
policy and tries to realize this policy by working together with participating
municipalities.
However, there is one interesting program for the a1 motorway. The a1 motor way is
of great worth for the accessibility of the “Stedendriehoek”. For that
20
“Stedendriehoek”, the province of Gelderland and Overijssel, Rijkswaterstaat, region
Twente and VROM worked together and developed the: Program a1 zone.
In this program the beauty of the location and surroundings of the a1 get much
attention. More subjects are: livability of the surroundings, possibilities concerning
economics, quality and accessibility. (Source: www.provincie.overijssel.nl/beleid /programma_a1-zone)
1.4.51.4.51.4.51.4.5 Regional policy cyclesRegional policy cyclesRegional policy cyclesRegional policy cycles There are several means of transport in the “Stedendriehoek”. The most important
ones are by car, by train, by bus and by bicycle.
Another important transport factor is the lorry traffic, especially on the A1 motorway.
For each of these means of transport the “Stedendriehoek” made a policy.
In the following text we will describe the policy for each means of transport:
Car The increasing car traffic on the A1 motorway is a big problem. To decrease the car traffic on
the A1 motorway it is the intention to let people use the public transfers more. By improving
the facilities around stations. Facilities like parking spots, waiting rooms, kiosks and others.
Train To decrease the traffic on the A1 motorway and the regional roads in the
“Stedendriehoek” it is the intention from the region “Stedendriehoek” to let more
people use the train as means of transport. Next to the decrease of the traffic on the
A1 motorway and other roads it will also be an improvement for the environment if
more people use the train as means of transport. There are two important policies to
improve the train transport. The first one is creating better facilities around and in
train stations and the second one is to increase the frequency with which trains pass
the stations in the region “Stedendriehoek”.
Bus For transport by bus applies the same arguments as by transport by train. Different
are the policies to improve bus transport. The frequency policy is the same. Another
policy is creating bus lanes. Busses then get precedence with regard to other traffic.
Bicycle In the bigger cities (Deventer, Apeldoorn and Zutphen) there are bicycle routes
created to improve the safety and the time-distance balance.
Lorry traffic The lorry traffic is the most importance factor that creates the increase of traffic on
the A1 motorway and other roads in the region “Stedendriehoek”. The most
21
importance measure that is taken to decrease the lorry traffic is the realization of the
Betuwelijn.
This project is now in a test phase. It is the intention that in a few months there will
drive around the 50 trains each day.
The Betuwelijn is also an improvement for the environmental situation. Especially for
the air quality in the region “Stedendriehoek”.
1.4.61.4.61.4.61.4.6 Legislation and policy cycles BelgiumLegislation and policy cycles BelgiumLegislation and policy cycles BelgiumLegislation and policy cycles Belgium The legislation and police cycles in Belgium are different as they are in the
Netherlands. The Belgium and Dutch government has the same mobility problem, the
enormous increase of the mobility.
A tremendous different with Belgium and the Netherlands are the consequences of
this increase of mobility. In the Netherlands the traffic volume has grown with 5%-
10% within the last year, in the Belgium it has grown 1%-2%. (Source: http://www.mobielvlaanderen.be/pdf/beleidsnota-brieven/fedbeleidsnotamobil.pdf)
A logical consequence of the increase of mobility is traffic jams. In the Netherlands
there are a lot of traffic jams. The Dutch government came up with a couple of
solutions. One of the solutions is Park & ride. A Park & ride is a formula where the
car can parked, and use the rest of the journey public transport.
The Belgium government are not very happy with Park & ride areas near the centre of
a city. A good reference is Brussels. In Brussels are nine Park & ride areas at the
moment. These Park & ride do not work. Most of the people who used the Park &
ride areas use it with other purposes. These travellers use it as a parking place when
they go out shopping for example. The minister of transport Thierry Duquenne of
Brussels said literally: “ Extra Park & ride areas are not an option for Brussels, it will
only increase the problems at the motorway”

1.5 References1.5 References1.5 References1.5 References
For a good advice to the 14 members of the region counsel of the region
“Stedendriehoek” we analysed a couple of reference project as stated below. There
will be given further detailed information of two of the five reference projects,
because they are the most relevant for our advice. They are most relevant because
most of the users are commuters, and the facilities are very low. These projects are
shown in the table below and the most relevant references are shown in bold.
There are two reference projects in Belgium, Brussels. The traffic situation is
different compared to the “Stedendriehoek”. In Brussels are less traffic-jams, but the
traffic-jams are not as predicable as the traffic-jams in the Netherlands. The policy
and legislation of the Park & ride areas in Brussels are quite different compared to
the policies and legislations in the “Stedendriehoek”. In Brussels they did not look at
the Park & ride areas as a solutions for the mobility problem but they thought it
would only create bigger problems on the motorway.

1.5.1 Noorddijk Groningen1.5.1 Noorddijk Groningen1.5.1 Noorddijk Groningen1.5.1 Noorddijk Groningen The Park & ride area at Noorddijk Groningen is a Park & ride area which is mostly
used by commuters. The accessibility of the Park & ride area is good. The Park & ride
area is accessible from a couple of roads like the N46, N360, N361 and N28. The
amount of parking places is high and parking here is free. They can park the car 24
hours a day. The facilities on this park and ride are very low. It is only using for
parking the car and change to public transport. There are just the basic facilities as
an information service, and no facilities like a Mac Donald’s.
The connection with the centre of Groningen is good. The frequency of the public
transport, in this case the bus, is high. Every 5-8 minutes there will drive a bus to
the centre of Groningen, which takes 5 minutes. A ticket for public transport is two
euro for a return.
1.5.2 Delta Brussels1.5.2 Delta Brussels1.5.2 Delta Brussels1.5.2 Delta Brussels There are a couple of Park & ride areas in Brussels. One of them is the delta Park &
ride. This Park & ride is located a few kilometres of the centre of Brussels. They are
mainly used by commuters. On the delta Park & ride are 300 parking places. They
can park the car 24 hours a day. There are no facilities at the Park & ride area. There
is only a possibility for parking the car and continue the journey with public
transportation. The content of public transportation in this case is the metro. The
metro leaves every 5 minutes from the Park & ride area. This is a high frequency, so
the users of the Park & ride do not have to wait very long.
The accessibility of the Park & ride area is not very good. There is only one road to
the park and ride area. This is not enough for an optimal use of the Park & ride area.
Another big problem is the promotion of the Park & ride in Brussels. There is a lack
of knowledge of the existence of the Park & ride areas.
1.5.3 Conclusion1.5.3 Conclusion1.5.3 Conclusion1.5.3 Conclusion For a Park & ride areas in the region “Stedendriehoek” are a couple of things
important when you look at the reference projects of Delta Brussels and Noorddijk
Groningen.
A couple of “learning points” which are important for the region “Stedendriehoek”:
- Accessibility
- Facilities
- Frequency of Public transport
- Promotion Park & ride

2222.1 Critical points.1 Critical points.1 Critical points.1 Critical points
2.1.1 2.1.1 2.1.1 2.1.1 Park & ride areasPark & ride areasPark & ride areasPark & ride areas The three Park & ride areas are of great value to the region “Stedendriehoek” for the
process of creating a city triangle. The goal is creating a cooperation between the
municipalities with good accessibility and the least amount of emission possible. The
best solution is to create three Park & ride areas for optimal accessibility from and to
the region “Stedendriehoek”. The busiest part of the region “Stedendriehoek” is
between Apeldoorn and Deventer. The traffic jam is both ways, therefore we want to
create at least two Park & ride areas (one in Apeldoorn and one in Deventer). This will
solve a part of the problem on the motorway A1 between Apeldoorn and Deventer.
Also if the traffic-jam is already taking place, the travellers should have the choice to
avoid the traffic-jam by using the Park & ride areas. The choice of creating two Park
& ride areas in Deventer is because the Park & ride areas are in the middle of two big
company areas. Therefore we would like to promote these Park & ride areas also at
these companies. These Park & ride areas will also contribute to the traffic intensity
of the agglomeration of Western Holland from travellers abroad.
2.1.22.1.22.1.22.1.2 FacilitiesFacilitiesFacilitiesFacilities The use of the Park & ride areas will be pure functional. A large portion of the
funding will be spending on the functional aspects of the facilities. This means there
will be enough parking places, good information services, good possibilities for
payment, enough weatherproof waiting rooms and a high frequency of public
transportation. The Park & ride areas will be as functional as possible.
2.1.32.1.32.1.32.1.3 Public transportationPublic transportationPublic transportationPublic transportation For the Park & ride areas to succeed, it has to be made attractive for a lot of
travellers, and they must be persuaded and convinced to use the Park & ride
facilities. This can only be reached if there are many possible destinations from the
Park & ride area and if there are enough types of public transportation. The
preferences are mostly travelling by train and bus. Another way to persuade
travellers to use the Park & ride areas is making it more financial attractive. The
parking and the travelling to the nearest central station and back will be combined
and will cost €3,50. This way the accessibility will be as high as possible and it will
be easy to use.
The frequency of the public transportation will be adjusted to the amount of parking
spots at the Park & ride areas, by increasing the amount of trains or busses that will
stop at the Park & ride areas. NS/Prorail and Connexxion/Syntus will provide the
basic public transportation. There will be used special busses to reach places where
a lot of companies are located. The number of stops will be limited to places near
companies and busy places in the centre of the city.
26
Only one Park & ride area is near a train rail. There could be built a train station for
the Park & ride area to create an easy access for the travellers. The other two Park &
ride facilities will have a good connection to the nearest train station. At these places
there will be a doubled frequency of the trains and busses to adjust to the users of
the Park & ride areas. Also the frequency of the trains to the agglomeration of
Western Holland will need to be adjusted.
2.1.42.1.42.1.42.1.4 AccessibilityAccessibilityAccessibilityAccessibility All the Park & ride areas can be reached by using the A1 motorway. The Park & ride
area at Apeldoorn can also be reached by using the N788 and the two Park & ride
areas at Deventer can be reached by using the N348. There is a possibility to create a
train station near the Park & ride area at Deventer to increase the accessibility. The
conditions of the infrastructure of the public roads have to be maintained to reserve
a good accessibility.
2.1.52.1.52.1.52.1.5 Promotion PaPromotion PaPromotion PaPromotion Park & riderk & riderk & riderk & ride The biggest problem of the Park & ride areas in the past, was mostly the lack of
knowledge of the Park & ride areas being there. A lot of travellers were not using it,
because they did not know of the existence. The Park & ride areas at the region
“Stedendriehoek” will be promoted as handy, cheap and fast. The Park & ride areas
will be promoted near the A1 motorway on billboards, at bus stops and at the train
stations. To create a good functioning Park & ride area travellers need to find the
Park & ride areas. Therefore good signs leading to the Park & ride areas will be
needed on the public roads and motorways.

2222.2 Specification Park & ride Deventer.2 Specification Park & ride Deventer.2 Specification Park & ride Deventer.2 Specification Park & ride Deventer----ZutphenZutphenZutphenZutphen The critical points will made clear in this chapter. The Park & ride area with the
highest priority will be explained here. The information here will be more detailed
and will result in a concept sketch of the new Park & ride area Deventer-Zutphen.
The reason why this project has the highest priority is because the largest traffic-
jams are located near Apeldoorn-Beekbergen and in particular in the direction of
Enschede to the agglomeration of Western Holland. This way we want to give as
many travellers as possible the possibility to use the Park & ride areas. The Park &
ride area is located in front of the usual traffic-jams, so the travellers using the A1
motorway will know there is a traffic-jam and therefore they will use the Park & ride
area to avoid the traffic-jam. Therefore we will give the advice to give this Park &
ride area the highest priority.
2.2.1 2.2.1 2.2.1 2.2.1 LocationLocationLocationLocation The location of the Park & ride Deventer-Zutphen is located near the junction of the
A1 motorway and the N348. This will provide a good accessibility by car and by bus.
Travellers can go in all directions from this Park & ride area. The location will also
give opportunities to the staff members of the companies located near the Park &
ride area (See map: locations of companies on page 14). This gives the staff members an opportunity to travel to their work by public transportation. The busses
provided by the Park & ride area will also travel to these companies.

this Park & ride will only be of functional nature. This includes an information
service, bus-station, safety measures, easy payment system and 800 parking places. The quality of the Park & ride area is good but the priority of the Park & ride area is
getting travellers on public transportation. (More views of the design can be found in the enclosure on the end of the advice report)

2.2.3 2.2.3 2.2.3 2.2.3 AccessibilityAccessibilityAccessibilityAccessibility The accessibility of the Park & ride area Deventer-Zutphen is very good. The Park &
ride area is located near the junction of the A1 motorway and N348. This means the
accessibility by car is optimal, because travellers by car can go in every direction.
The only disadvantage is there is no train station located near this Park & ride area.
Using public busses, which will travel to the train station of Deventer and will go
there every 10 minutes, will solve this problem. Also the travellers, who are working
at the nearby companies, will be provided with transportation by bus. The Park &
ride will also be promoted at the A1 motorway, at bus station and there will be clear
signs leading travellers to the Park & ride area. This way there will be as many
travellers as possibly who will use the Park & ride area.

2.2.4 2.2.4 2.2.4 2.2.4 Public transporPublic transporPublic transporPublic transportationtationtationtation The public transportation used on this Park & ride area will be mainly the use of
busses. The busses will ride with a high frequency and will depart every 10 minutes.
The busses will leave to the train station of Deventer and the nearby companies. The
public transportation will be as cheap as possibly to attract as many travellers as
possible. It will be accessible for all types of travellers. The information service will
also be very good, so the travellers will always know when the busses will arrive and
where they will go. The whole Park & ride area will be pure functional and safe.
2.2.5 2.2.5 2.2.5 2.2.5 ConclusionConclusionConclusionConclusion This chapter gives a good example how the Park & ride area Deventer-Zutphen will
look like and the priorities, which are the most important for a good functional Park
& ride area. The most important priority is functionality of the Park & ride area and
decreasing the waiting times as much as possible. The Park & ride area will be used
by all sorts of travellers and will be as cheap as possible to make it more attractive to
use. This Park & ride will also serve as a buffer for travellers who will try to avoid the
traffic-jams further abroad.

2.3 Effects of measures considered2.3 Effects of measures considered2.3 Effects of measures considered2.3 Effects of measures considered
2.3.12.3.12.3.12.3.1 IntroductionIntroductionIntroductionIntroduction In this chapter we will bring enlightenment concerning the plausible effect of
developing the Park & ride facilities.
Beside the positive effects of for instance traffic decrease on certain roads and of
decrease of environmental pollution, we also give attention to certain goals that are
not being attained.
By looking at these subjects the partial and possible feasibility of the project will be
more clarified. And possible considerations can be taken. However we start of with
the positive effect.
2.3.22.3.22.3.22.3.2 Attained goals (Positive effects)Attained goals (Positive effects)Attained goals (Positive effects)Attained goals (Positive effects)
DiversityDiversityDiversityDiversity The “Stedendriehoek” offers car users more options for transport. When a Park & ride
facility is developed people see that the “Stedendriehoek” is working on the problems
of environmental pollution and traffic jams/ problems. This will bring more peace of
mind in the society.
It’s always good to have alternative ways to reach your destination.
Less car traffic in the city centersLess car traffic in the city centersLess car traffic in the city centersLess car traffic in the city centers Because al of the Park & ride facilities are developed near Apeldoorn and Deventer,
the effect on car traffic will mainly be seen in the city centers.
This can be considered as very positive because of the present car traffic problems in
the city centers municipalities are dealing with at the time.
Target groups that mainly being reached, according to our investigation are: people
that wok in the city centers and tourists.
During the rush hour there are many traffic jams between Apeldoorn and Deventer. A
Park & ride area Deventer-Zutphen can improve the traffic intensity during the rush
hour.
SafetySafetySafetySafety Because a certain decrease in car traffic, mainly in the city centers, is being attained.
Safety will improve. Because less traffic, means more safety. For car users and most
of all for cyclists and pedestrians.
Environmental pollutionEnvironmental pollutionEnvironmental pollutionEnvironmental pollution The future predicts a huge increase in car traffic on all type of roads. (See Development vehicle kilometres scheme on page 10) The Park & ride facilities will bring a curtain relief. The Park & ride areas are just a start to create a better
environment and will only result in minor improvement concerning CO2 emissions.
The car traffic will not decrease thanks to the Park & ride facilities. They will increase
less. (See Development vehicle kilometres scheme on page 10)

Positive impulse for public transportPositive impulse for public transportPositive impulse for public transportPositive impulse for public transport Park & ride will bring a positive impulse into the public transport. Park & ride needs a
good connexion with public transport with a high frequency. Sources tell us that high
frequency on busy bus lines lead to more passengers.
2222.3.3.3.3.3.3.3.3 Not attained goalsNot attained goalsNot attained goalsNot attained goals The traffic jam on the regional roads, the N344, N345 and N348, will hardly decrease
when the Park & ride areas are realized.
To decrease the traffic on these regional roads it is necessary to improve the public
transfer connections between Deventer-Apeldoorn (N344), Deventer-Zutphen (N348)
and Apeldoorn-Zutphen (N345). Another solution can be a bus lane (is improvement
public transfer) near the already existing roads or an improvement of the regional
roads.
For the A1 and A50 motorways the situation is the same as for the regional roads. In
this case the increasing lorry traffic is the reason. A solution is already mentioned,
the Betuwelijn.
32
2.4 Discussion points2.4 Discussion points2.4 Discussion points2.4 Discussion points
Many things have to be discussed before a Park & ride can be developed. The region
“Stedendriehoek” will have to negotiate with the municipalities in the region about
the development of Park & ride areas in their municipality. In this chapter suggests
discussion points for the development of Park & ride areas to the region
“Stedendriehoek”.
For the development of Park & ride areas in the region Stedendriehoek is money
available for Park & ride facilities.
The target groups for the Park & ride spots are travelers on the A1 motorway from
both directions, tourists, employees from outside the cities and inhabitants around
the Park & ride areas. Not all these target groups will be reached if a Park & ride will
start operating.
The decrease of pressure on the A1 motorway will be minimal, because most of the
users of the Park & ride will be tourists and for a small part, it will be drivers on the
A1 motorway and other target groups.
In case the “Stedendriehoek” negotiates with the stakeholders there will be
discussion. Good communication is necessary in the proces. That is why we came up
with several discussionpoints which should be thougt of.
Targetgroups In our advice the effect of the Park & ride areas is mostly visible in the city centers of
Deventer and Apeldoorn. The decrease of the pressure on the A1 motorway is
minimum.
This can be a problem for some stakeholders, because their main concern is the
pressure on the A1 motorway instead of the traffic pressure in the city centers.
Alternatives Instead of realizing three Park & ride areas it is also possible to start by developing
one or two. Based on succes of those, realization of another one or two is possible.
Public transport inventions can also be a solution for the traffic problems on the A1
motorway. One option is a special bus lane from Zutpen to Deventer. With a high
frequency time table in the rush hours.
Light rail between the triangle Zutphen-Deventer-Apeldoorn can also decrease the
pressure on the A1 motorway.

2.5 Feasibility2.5 Feasibility2.5 Feasibility2.5 Feasibility
The realization of three Park & ride areas within the region “Stedendriehoek” is
feasible. We came to this conclusion because of the following three issues:
2.5.12.5.12.5.12.5.1 PoliciesPoliciesPoliciesPolicies The mobility policy in the Netherlands is partial based on decreasing the traffic
pressure. This is to promote the traffic safety and the environment in the
Netherlands. One of the possibilities is more use of public transport by motorists. A
Park & ride area contributes to this. The policy of the “Stedendriehoek” leaps in on
this by indicating three possible locations for the development of Park & ride areas.
2.5.22.5.22.5.22.5.2 FinancialFinancialFinancialFinancial From policy documents of the region “Stedendriehoek” is appeared that within the
involved municipalities in the region “Stedendriehoek” financial possibilities exist for
the development of three Park & ride areas inside the region.
2.5.3 Public transport2.5.3 Public transport2.5.3 Public transport2.5.3 Public transport Public transport is very important for good functioning of the Park & ride area. Most
of the available money will be used for good public transport. The frequency of
public transport is very important for good functioning of the Park & ride area. This
will take a lot of fundings to accomplish. Good public transport is feasible, but it will
cost a lot of money.
2.5.4 Facilities2.5.4 Facilities2.5.4 Facilities2.5.4 Facilities All the facilities we used are pure functional. The facilities used are
informationservice and safety measures. Because the facilities are minimal, they are
not very expensive. So the realization of the facilities is feasible.
2.5.5 2.5.5 2.5.5 2.5.5 ReferencesReferencesReferencesReferences After the realization of the three Park & ride areas it is important that these areas will
be used in the right way. Doing research on already existing Park & ride areas tests
the expected effects. Comparable Park & ride areas like in Groningen (Noorddijk) and
in Brussels (Delta) are used as references. The action of these Park & ride areas come
up to expectations. Appeared is that it is of big importance that the basic facilities
are good. Users of the Park & ride are assented to a fast connection to public
transport and limited waiting time. This is more important than the extra facilities
(for example; Kiosk, Mc Donald’s, etc.) on the Park & ride areas.

2.6 Advice for the region “Stedendrieh2.6 Advice for the region “Stedendrieh2.6 Advice for the region “Stedendrieh2.6 Advice for the region “Stedendriehoek” (Conclusion)oek” (Conclusion)oek” (Conclusion)oek” (Conclusion)
2.6.12.6.12.6.12.6.1 First adviceFirst adviceFirst adviceFirst advice The advice for the region counsel of the region “Stedendriehoek” is to start with the
Park & ride area Deventer – Zutphen. This is the best choice, because the largest
traffic-jams are located near Apeldoorn-Beekbergen and in particular in the direction
of Enschede to the agglomeration of Western Holland. This way we want to give as
many travellers as possible the possibility to use the Park & ride areas. The Park &
ride area is located in front of the usual traffic-jams, so the travellers using the A1
motorway will know there is a traffic-jam and therefore they will use the Park & ride
area to avoid the traffic-jam. Therefore we will give the advice to give this Park &
ride area the highest priority.
2.6.22.6.22.6.22.6.2 Second advicSecond advicSecond advicSecond adviceeee The second advice is to use the Park & ride area as functional as possible. The only
facilities that will be used are functional facilities like an information service, bus-
station, safety measures, easy payment system and 800 parking places. This way
there will be saved lots of money to realize three Park & ride areas and keep up a
high frequency of busses transporting the travellers from the Park & ride area.
2.6.32.6.32.6.32.6.3 Third adviceThird adviceThird adviceThird advice The third advice is to promote the Park & ride area on the most functional places.
This includes promoting on the A1 motorway, at bus stations and good signs leading
to the Park & ride area. This way the Park & ride area will be used by much more
travelers and they will consider using the Park & ride area much faster. In
combination with the location travelers also have the choice to use the Park & ride to
avoid the traffic-jam further abroad.
