Main road system
Main road system:

and Amsterdam ports and Schiphol airport to the hinterland (incl.
Belgium and Germany).
2. Main transport routes: less important (national) roads for traffic
travelling through the Netherlands.
3. Main roads: all other roads included in the main road system.

coastal town of IJmuiden. The line runs north of Amsterdam, east of
Utrecht (Amsterdam-Rijn-kanaal) and back to Rotterdam and Hoek van
Holland. Index figures concerning working days are not (yet) available.
