The railway used to cross the beautiful centre of Delft on a viaduct, but the locals believed it spoiled the look of the city - plus it also restricted the number of trains which could travel along it.

Hence in 2015 a brand new station opened its doors, providing access to sporen / platforms located in a tunnel built to replace the viaduct.

Step-free access is available between the ticket hall, which is at street level, and the trains.
