Amsterdam Beach Express

The Amsterdam Beach Express is a proposal for an e-bike highway connecting the Amsterdam city centre with the beaches of Zandvoort and Bloemendaal aan Zee. E-bikes radically improve the accessibility and connectivity of the Amsterdam Metropolitan Area by bike, propelling Amsterdam into a bright and healthy future where electric mobility will become the new standard.

​

Tourism

De Amsterdam Beach Express makes the beach accessible by bike for 'Amsterdammers' but also is a route which connects significant historical and cultural spots, allowing tourists to easily access and experience the beautiful Dutch countryside. 

​

Work traffic

For people living in Haarlem and working in Amsterdam Sloterdijk or the city centre the e-bike will become a serious alternative for car or public transport. The transformation of Sloterdijk and the adjoining Haarlemmerstraat offer the opportunity to give the e-bike a leading role in the design of the public space.
