A collision affected the timetable for The Hague tram routes 3 and 12 on Thursday evening. According to the latest information from transport operator HTM and a public overview of public transport disruptions, the routes are being diverted and stops are being cancelled.
HTM reported unplanned disruptions on the tram network on Thursday evening. Diversions were reported for trams 3 and 12 following a collision. According to the public overview, the expected duration of the disruption was more than four hours.
As a result, passengers should expect cancelled stops and altered routes. HTM refers passengers to its own journey planner and app for the latest travel advice. The disruption may still change during the evening when the infrastructure is cleared or vehicles are moved.
No reliable further information about the precise location, the cause or the vehicles involved was available in the public sources consulted. It has also not been confirmed whether anyone was injured. No conclusions are therefore drawn on these matters.
The incident comes on top of routine works and earlier disruptions on The Hague tram network. For passengers, the main point is that the routes are not following their usual paths and that, according to HTM, alternatives may also be delayed.
The report is therefore primarily relevant as current traffic and transport news for The Hague. Once the police, fire service or HTM provide more information about what happened or the consequences, the report may be supplemented.
