First congestion-free New Year

According to the Traffic Information Service (VID) Friday was the first New Year's Day when there were no traffic jams on the highways.

On some roads to the beaches began Friday some delay, but these are not included in the calculation. It was, for example pressure to Zandvoort and Bloemendaal, Wijk an Zee and Castricum. A brief closure of the A28 at 't Harde only led to a brief stoppage of less than one kilometer, according to the VID.
