Future Extensions
As of 2016, the metro network will be extended westward to Hoek van Holland, as RET will take over the train line from NS. The new line will connect to the existing network at Schiedam Centrum. Part of the project is the addition of a new station at Maassluis.
As part of the "Stadionpark" project, a new line between Zuidplein and Kralingse Zoom is planned. This new line will bypass the existing transfer at Beurs and will provide better public transport connections for residential areas on the South bank of Rotterdam.

Famous quotes containing the words future and/or extensions:
“Such is the miraculous nature of the future of exiles: what is first uttered in the impotence of an overheated apartment becomes the fate of nations.”
—Salman Rushdie (b. 1948)
“The psychological umbilical cord is more difficult to cut than the real one. We experience our children as extensions of ourselves, and we feel as though their behavior is an expression of something within us...instead of an expression of something in them. We see in our children our own reflection, and when we don’t like what we see, we feel angry at the reflection.”
—Elaine Heffner (20th century)
