Table 2 shows the length of several road categories and the number of relevant road related
infrastructural elements. Table 3 gives an overview of the direct land use of these types of
infrastructure in the Netherlands. The total area of road infrastructure in the Netherlands adds
up to 1,300 km2, which is approximately 3.9% of the total Dutch land surface (33,906 km2).
Considering the remarks above, the figures presented in Table 3 should be considered
minimum values. Furthermore, land use by gas stations and parking spaces are the least solid
figures in this calculation since a number of assumptions had to be made on their spatial
design
