Metrostation Rokin

Rokin metro station is an Amsterdam Metro station on Line 52, the fifth and newest metro line in Amsterdam which connects the Amsterdam-Noord (north) borough to the Amsterdam-Zuid (south) via Amsterdam Centraal. It began service in July 2018 and is under the Rokin canal in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Overground, this metro station serves as a connection to the tram lines 4, 14 and 24 as well as the night buses N85, N86, N87 & N88. The station, designed by Benthem Crouwel Architekten, has an island platform 125 meters long and approximately 11.8 meters wide. There are two exits, one on the north side of Rokin, south of Dam Square, and the other one north of Spui. The station is handles approximately 30,000 passengers per day. The station is located at a depth of 21.5 meters below NAP. NOS reported on March 8, 2018, that "Travellers who take the metro at the Rokin first stand on the escalator for two and a half minutes before they reach the platform." Because of the great depth, the height difference to be bridged is so great that the platform can only be accessible by lift and escalators. Fixed stairs are not used here. On top of the station, there is an underground car park for 250 cars and an underground bicycle shed for 300 bicycles. The station is also used for an exhibition of the archaeological objects found in the soil of Amsterdam during the construction of the metro line.
