'De Hofbogen' is a monumental old railroad track which runs 2,5 km from the citycentre to the north ring road. Under the arches you find lots of small and medium businesses, designshops, artisans, studios and artists.
The track is being restored and there are plans to build a park on the roof, where the tracks used to be.
