Met gemiddeld meer dan 60.000 instappende reizigers op weekdagen blijven de drie belangrijkste stations van Brussel de drukste treinstations van Belgi\u00eb. Dat blijkt uit cijfers van de openbare spoorwegmaatschappij NMBS\/SNCB, die een nieuwe en nauwkeurigere telmethode heeft toegepast.<\/p>\n

Het contrast met het rustigste station kan niet groter zijn: in Hourpes in Henegouwen, waar zo\u2019n 180 inwoners wonen, worden er slechts 7 treinreizigers per dag geteld.<\/p>\n

De NMBS\/NSCB telt ongeveer 554 stations en haltes. Daarvan hebben er 100 op weekdagen gemiddeld minder dan 100 instappende reizigers per dag, maar er zijn momenteel geen plannen om ook maar \u00e9\u00e9n daarvan te sluiten. Integendeel, er komt in december zelfs een nieuwe halte bij: Braine-Alliance in Eigenbrakel.<\/p>\n

Brussel-Noord blijft aan kop<\/h4>\n

Brussel-Noord bleef in 2025 het drukste station van het land, met 61.362 instappende reizigers op weekdagen, inclusief degenen die overstapten. De top 3 bleef ongewijzigd, met Brussel-Zuid (60.647) en Brussel-Centraal (60.595) respectievelijk op de tweede en derde plaats.<\/p>\n

Daarna volgen Gent-Sint-Pieters (56.779), Antwerpen-Centraal (38.681), Leuven (37.379) en Mechelen (23.621). Luik-Guillemins, op de 8e plaats, is het eerste Waalse station in de ranglijst, met een gemiddelde van 22.991 instappende passagiers op weekdagen.<\/p>\n

In het weekend is Brussel-Zuid het drukste station van het land (met bijvoorbeeld 32.509 vertrekkende reizigers op zaterdag), net voor Gent-Sint-Pieters (31.905)<\/p>\n

Het aantal stations blijft stabiel<\/h4>\n

Daarnaast zijn er 17 stations waar op elke werkdag gemiddeld meer dan 10.000 reizigers instappen, waaronder Namen, Brugge, Antwerpen-Berchem, Ottignies, Charleroi-Centraal, Brussels Airport, Kortrijk, Bergen en Denderleeuw.<\/p>\n

Er zijn ook bijna 100 stations waar op weekdagen minder dan 100 instappende reizigers per dag worden geteld. Daarvan hebben er 7 maximaal 15 instappende reizigers: Vijfhuizen in Erpe-Mere (15), Callenelle (14), Pry (14), Harchies (12), Aalst-Kerrebroek (10), Beign\u00e9e (8) en Hourpes (7).<\/p>\n

Het aantal stations is de afgelopen jaren stabiel gebleven en schommelt tussen de 550 en 554, maar het zijn de loketten \u2013 en niet de stations \u2013 die de laatste jaren in een sneller tempo verdwijnen.<\/p>\n

Volgens het nieuwe vervoersplan voor 2026-2029, dat half december van kracht wordt, zijn er geen sluitingen van stations gepland \u2013 een politiek gevoelig onderwerp, omdat de meeste kleinere stations in Walloni\u00eb liggen. In Eigenbrakel, Walloni\u00eb, wordt eind december zelfs een nieuw station geopend: Braine Alliance.<\/p>\n

Nieuwe telmethode<\/h4>\n

De NMBS\/SNCB voert elk jaar in oktober passagierstellingen uit. Jarenlang werden deze tellingen handmatig uitgevoerd. Maar nu vrijwel alle kaartjes en abonnementen worden gescand, beschikt het bedrijf over voldoende gegevens om het aantal passagiers per station op betrouwbare wijze digitaal te tellen.<\/p>\n

Volgens de NMBS\/SCNB geeft deze methode ook een veel representatiever beeld, met een gemiddeld cijfer over een heel jaar in plaats van cijfers die op \u00e9\u00e9n week zijn gebaseerd.<\/p>\n

Vorig jaar vervoerde de NMBS\/SNCB 207,8 miljoen betalende reizigers: gemiddeld 740.431 per dag op weekdagen, 306.888 op zaterdag en 264.090 op zondag.<\/p>\n

In april 2026 heeft de NMBS het cijfer voor 2024 opnieuw berekend aan de hand van de nieuwe, nauwkeurigere methode, wat uitkwam op 205,6 miljoen in plaats van 245 miljoen. In 2019 (v\u00f3\u00f3r de pandemie) bedroeg het cijfer volgens de nieuwe methode 230 miljoen.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
