The Hague takes extra measures for warm beach days Inland

From the mornings, the municipality will also deploy fifty traffic controllers at traffic points and parking garages, extra bicycle coaches at arrival points and (pop-up) bicycle and scooter parking facilities, plus extra hosts on the boulevard. “We do this to set limits,” said Deputy Mayor Hilbert Bredemeijer. “We are a welcoming seaside resort, but that should not be a license to violate rules deliberately.”

In addition, the municipality urges beach visitors not to drive their cars to the coast in the coming days. People are given ‘urgent advice’ to park their vehicles in the parking lots on the city edges or parking garages in the city and to come to the beach by public transport or a shared bicycle or partial scooter so that they do not have to sit in a heat car for hours.

“Conscious travel is part of a beautiful beach day. In short, I say to all residents of The Hague, day trippers and tourists from home and abroad: make use of all the transport alternatives that this city offers! ”
