In the middle of the Northern ringroad at Kleinpolderplein a traffic intersection of four levels arose in 1971.
The seven metro stations in the South have been designed by municipal architect ir. Veerling. He had just started working for Rotterdam. The commission was to design similar stations in materials, interior and signs.
In the pre-war Rotterdam, Hofplein was a complicated intersection where fourteen wider and narrower streets, three waterways and two intersecting railway lines converged.
On 9 February 1968 the Rotterdam metro officially opened, with as very first passengers Princess Beatrix and Prince Claus.
The reconstruction of Rotterdam was an excellent opportunity to tackle the flow of traffic in the centre.
