Stations and their environment

Heerlen station now also has a piano in the station, since December 2024. This fulfilled a long-cherished wish of the Heerlen city council.

Stations are crucial hubs in sustainable mobility and in the urban development challenge facing the Netherlands. Stations are therefore essential assets in NS's strategy.

We want stations and station areas to be safe and meaningful centres of activity in society. High-quality stations, their surroundings and facilities are important components of the pubic transport system in the Netherlands. They also play an important role in sustainable mobility.

Sustainable mobility is an essential part of the solution to many challenges in the Netherlands, such as climate and the accessibility of almost one million new homes. Building near public transport hubs and stations helps passengers make sustainable mobility choices.
