  • In 2022, DB Arriva Netherlands has won a bid for bus and train operations in Twente in the east of the Netherlands, part of the province of Overijsse. From December 2023, Arriva will operate the bus and train transport for four years (with an option to extend for another year). This strengthens DB Arriva’s position as the largest bus and regional train operator in the Netherlands. The window for appeals has closed unused in February 2023.

Revenues directly related to transport contracts or concessions are either independent
of (secured revenues, essentially concession fees) or dependent on (unsecured revenues,
essentially revenues from fares) the number of passengers.

Overall, in 2022 the order book declined. The additions from transport contracts awarded of about € 2.0 billion were offset by disposals of about € 3.4 billion, mainly as a result of services rendered and changes in assumptions of € –1.2 billion. The changes in assumptions mainly include the sale of activities in Sweden and Portugal.
