Changes as of January 2021
In the current version of this table, the figures for train stations and switching stations have been revised as a result of a cleanup and correction of the source files. The CBS has recently acquired ProRail’s spatial files, allowing the location of stations to be determined more accurately than before. As a result, the results for reporting year 2019 are no longer comparable to those of previous years. At national level, the average distance to train stations has not changed compared to the previous version. The distance to transfer stations has increased by an average of 3 kilometres. At a lower regional level, the differences may be greater.
Figures for the reporting year 2019 have been added on the following topics:
— Museums
— Performing arts
— Pop venues
