Quality of NS connections to other carriers

This performance indicator is closely related to the arrival punctuality of NS trains and is largely affected by the same developments and causes as the Passenger punctuality KPI. The poor result is partly due to international trains from Germany entering the Netherlands behind schedule. In addition, prolonged works in Germany made it necessary to divert a great deal of freight traffic from the Betuwe Line to the Brabant Line. Due to frequent delays, these freight trains caused disruption to passenger trains.
