Image:Ltspkr.pngWestervoort is a municipality and a town in the eastern Netherlands. The town has two rivers inside it's borders, the Rhine and the IJssel. It is a forensic town closely linked to Arnhem, the capital of Gelderland, which is situated on the west bank of the IJssel river, the east bank being occupied by Westervoort.
Transport
While a railroad runs straight through the town, there is no railway station in Westervoort. There used to be a station in Westervoort from February 15, 1856 to October 4th, 1936. There are plans to build a new one though, which would significantly reduce travel times for those travelling with the public transport. For now, public buses run through Westervoort, with direct connections to Arnhem and Duiven. The A12 highway runs north of Westervoort and has an exit serving both Westervoort and the western parts of Duiven.
