Project (ongoing): Valleilijn (Ede and Wageningen)
The Dutch Valleilijn (Valley line) is a combined bus and train connection. Busses connect the city centre of Wageningen with the railway station of Ede, from there trains run via Barneveld to Amersfoort. At Barneveld, the trains halt at an interchange, which connects car drivers to trains to Amersfoort and further to the Randstad.
The most sustainable section of the route is the first leg from Wageningen to Ede railway station, which is covered by MAN compressed natural gas (CNG) buses, operated by Veolia. The remainder of the route is serviced by state-of-the-art trains, run by Connexxion. The trains and buses have a uniform Valleilijn branding.
