Nearly 50,000 Travelers Disrupted by Utrecht Central Rail Blockade
State Secretary Annet Bertram informed the House of Representatives that an Extinction Rebellion blockade at Utrecht Central in May affected approximately 49,000 travelers and caused direct costs exceeding 100,000 euros. The expenses cover damage to ProRail, security costs, and lost revenue for NS, though the actual impact may be higher due to pending compensation claims. Bertram condemned the half-hour action as unacceptable and criminal, noting it created significant safety risks and could erode public trust in public transport.
