We therefore use this extra train-free period to also perform other rail work. Ultimately everyone benefits if there is more safety for road traffic and more train traffic can take place at the same time.Preparations fourth trackThe activities of ProRail are mainly in preparation for the construction of the fourth track between Groningen station and De Vork in Haren. We work between the Hereweg viaduct in Groningen and the new parking site De Vork near Haren. This involves work on overhead contact lines cables and pipes and for example installing baffle plates at the Groningen Europapark underpass.Haren also lifts with itWork at Haren also benefits from the train-free period. ProRail is working there with contractor Reimert on the new underpass. We are removing the overpass at the Haren station that is still in the tracks and we are working on platforms and platform stairs.
