Have you ever heard of the Randstad? This metropolitan area in the Netherlands embraces four major cities: Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, and Utrecht. It stands as the most densely populated area in the country, pulsating as the economic core of the nation. To create this conurbation, the Netherlands used its intercity rail network, seamlessly linking the four cities. Today, it's not just a notion, but a reality: you can live in Rotterdam, work in Amsterdam, and enjoy dinner in Utrecht, all in a single day. And this is something George Liu - Urban Mobility Researcher - had to see for himself!
This episode is the second of our new series, "Navigating Urban Transit" featuring George Liu. In each episode, George travels to a different European place to discover its public transit system and its specificities. Stay tuned to find out where he will go next!
