In Nieuwegein the tram still screams despite lubrication installations sharpened

Nieuwegein – It still drives me crazy, say residents in Nieuwegein on the Zegelstede about the tram that passes by every seven minutes. The tram has been running in Utrecht, Nieuwegein and IJsselstein for 4.5 years now and complaints have been pouring in since the start. Residents in various places along the route hear a high-pitched beeping sound as the tram passes: the now well-known ‘arch sound’.?
