NWB roads - Changes in road sections (RWS)

This dataset only contains the changes on road sections that were carried out in the National Road File (NWB) in the month prior to the reference date. The NWB Roads file is a digital geographical file of all roads in the Netherlands. Included are all roads managed by road authorities such as the national government, provinces, municipalities and water boards, but only insofar as they are provided with a street name or number. So separate footpaths and cycle paths and unpaved roads, if provided with a street name, are also included in the NWB-Wegen. If a road has separate lanes, which is especially the case with national roads, these are processed as separate road sections in the file. The NWB Roads database currently consists of more than 159,000 hectopoints and almost 1.5 million digitized road sections with a total length of more than 190,000 kilometers (measured in January 2023). The NWB Roads file is updated monthly. More information and news about the NWB can be found at https://nationaalwegendossier.nl/ Representatives of municipalities, provinces, water boards and Rijkswaterstaat have started designing and organizing the collaboration around the NWB. In the context of this further development of the NWB, we would like to get in touch with you, the NWB user. We therefore ask you to send an email with your contact details to the following address: nwb@rws.nl
