From September 18th to 22nd, the international Maglev 2024 conference was held in Malmö, Sweden. At this conference the international community of Maglev-related researchers, developers, planners, architects and interestees assembled to share knowledge and insights. Stichting Freedom of Mobility also participated again with a poster session and presentation.
On Thursday, September 19th, we gave a presentation “Case for Maglev in the Netherlands connecting airports and stations – A feasibility study in progress”.
As the study into connecting the airports to the railway network, possibly using intercity Maglev, is only in an early stage, we limited the presentation to a brief introduction of the location of the airports, the airport line, A2 corridor, followed by insights into the study and some preliminary data.
After the introduction, we shared the background and methods to make a realistic cost estimate in the Dutch situation, especially for Maglev.
