	Betuweroute will handle most Dutch railfreight - New Line Projects: Netherlands International Railway Journal - Find ...
		The Betuweroute project comprises upgrading the existing 48km Rotterdam Port Railway, which runs from the Europoort at Maasvlakte via the Waalhaven container rail service centre to the Kijfhoek shunting yard, and constructing a new double-track line that parallels the A15 motorway to the German border near Emmerich.
		Betuweroute represents the country's largest infrastructure project and is being strongly promoted as an environmentally-friendly form of freight transport, eventually handling 43 million tonnes a year in an operation involving 750m-long trains, each of which will carry the equivalent load of 60 highway lorries.
		The government decision to build the Betuweroute was taken in 1994 and was ratified by a commission and parliament in 1995.

	Archaeology Report 2002
		During the work on the Betuweroute, a system was developed with which the archaeological process has acquired a concrete and verifiable position within the entire project.
		The system developed for the Betuweroute forms the basis for the further creation of project archaeology and for producing indicators which are the basis for prognoses and estimates in other projects.
		The fact that this estimate was realistic is shown by the fact that, now that the archaeology work in relation to the Betuweroute has almost been completed, the budget has not been and is not going to be exceeded.

		The third bored tunnel on the Betuweroute is the Pannerdensch Canal Tunnel, which is located in the east of the Netherlands close to Arnhem and 10 km from the German border.
		Initially, a bridge was planned to carry this section of the Betuweroute, however, the area concerned is an area of natural beauty and after fierce opposition, the decision was taken to build a tunnel.

	Railway Technology - Betuweroute - Double-Track Freight Line
		The Betuweroute is a 160km, €4.55 billion, double-track freight rail line stretching from the port of Rotterdam to the German border at Zevenaar-Emmerich.
		The freight-only Betuweroute line is needed because passenger trains are increasingly using up the capacity of the Netherlands' current rail system.
		Given that the Betuweroute is built with 25kV AC overhead supply, dual-voltage electric locomotives are preferred.

	Betuweroute - operation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		It was concluded in April 2005, based on the evaluation of the business case, that there are a number of serious uncertainties in connection with the operation of the Betuweroute in the first few years after it opens and that current conditions, including market conditions, are still not favourable for granting a long-term operating contract.
		Minister Peijs therefore proposed allowing the Betuweroute to be operated by ProRail and the Rotterdam Port Authority for a period of 3 to 5 years.
		Such conditions are expected to come about once the Betuweroute has been in use for a number of years.’ The minister therefore proposed granting operation of the Betuweroute to ProRail for the first year after it opens.

	KLEYN AND OTHERS v. THE NETHERLANDS - 39343/98;39651/98;43147/98;... [2003] ECHR 226 (6 May 2003)
		The decision-making process had related one-sidedly to the solution chosen, namely the construction of the Betuweroute railway, it having been decided at the outset that that was beneficial for the national economy and the environment; an expert analysis of the information on which the outline planning decision was based had not been sought.
		Secondly, the legal questions addressed were different because the advice only dealt with questions of procedure and participation and not the question of the necessity of the actual routing in the light of the applicants’ rights and interests, unlike the decision on their appeals against the routing decision.
		The central question raised is whether, in the circumstances of the present case, the combining of the advisory and judicial functions within the Council of State was capable of casting doubt on the institution’s structural impartiality sufficiently to vitiate the impartiality of the Chamber of the Administrative Jurisdiction Division which determined the applicants’ appeals.

		All these systems can affect each other, and all must be perfectly integrated if the Betuweroute is to operate safely.
