About

About Ridderkerk, De Schans

Every service touching De Schans runs 28 times a week — all four of them, in both directions, to both destinations. What varies is not the frequency but the hours: the Alblasserdam boats start at 06:19 and the Krimpen ones not until 07:22.

The two destinations sit almost equidistant. Alblasserdam is 1.9 nautical miles away at 7 minutes; Krimpen aan den IJssel Stormpolder is 2.0 nautical miles at 8 minutes. From this pontoon the river opens in two directions and costs about the same either way.

De Schans is on the Ridderkerk bank of the Noord, the short river that links the Lek and the Merwede and carries much of the barge traffic between Rotterdam and the German Rhine. Four day patterns cover the week, one of them running Thursday to Saturday only, and the last boat leaves at 21:00.
