The municipality of Amsterdam has launched a questionnaire via social media to gather input from motorists regarding the upcoming closure of the IJtunnel, which is slated to last at least one year starting in the summer of 2027 for essential maintenance. The survey warns of potential travel time increases of 20 to 60 minutes during peak hours and 10 to 30 minutes outside of peak hours due to increased traffic on diversion routes. The municipality aims to use the survey's findings to better prepare for the closure, understand traveler needs, develop suitable travel options, and ensure continued accessibility for those who rely on cars. Questions also explore reasons for car dependency and potential alternatives like ferries or public transport.
