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:
“Imagination places the future world for us either above or below or in reincarnation. We dream of travels throughout the universe: is not the universe within us? We do not know the depths of our spirit. M The mysterious path leads within. In us, or nowhere, lies eternity with its worlds, the past and the future.”
—Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)
“If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
