NS made a loss

I am annoyed how this concept is so normalised that no one wonders anymore.

Should public rail be self-sufficient or is it a public good?

And how much was the loss of highways this year, compared to rail?

Never mind that highways encourage modes of transport that kill more people, both directly and indirectly.

Widening of A1 highway costs 400 million euros.

Rijkswaterstaat grijpt de verbreding van de A1 aan om samen met provincie Overijssel, provincie Gelderland, gemeenten en de Cleantech Regio een impuls te geven aan duurzaamheid, vormgeving van de weg en ruimtelijke kwaliteit van het gebied

From Rijkswaterstaat. The "sustainable" part is literally just not unnecessarily using streetlights. Totally ridiculous.

I’m not entirely sure but NS is not a public company but a private one with the dutch state as majority stockholder. Used to be public though…
