H. I. Ambacht
The town of Hendrik Ido Ambacht
(H. I. Ambacht) is expanding in the direction of the town of Zwijndrecht.
Rotterdam lies on the horizon in this photograph. The crane marks the place
where the new Betuwe Line Tunnel is under construction.
The cross island, x-ing, literally
marks the spot and will form a pedestrian connection from the Vinex housing area
and the town of Zwijndrecht. The other line will remain disconnected from the
shores. The two crossing paths (tiendwegen) will be lined with rows of alder
trees. The land on the right still must be removed.
