Zoetermeer has a excellent transportation system. The "randstadrail" runs throughout the whole city. Parts that are not covered by it are easily reachable by bus.
When coming from The Hague or Utrecht you probably end up at Zoetermeer-West train station. Walk across the highway to the other train station. There, you will find the Randstadrail, which brings you to "Zoetermeer Centrum West". All buses depart here. You can also find here the police station, shops and town hall.
You can buy a ticket on the bus by the driver: outside the rush hour and on weekends there is a cheap one-way/use ticket. You may also use a strippenkaart which you can find at kiosks, supermarkets or tobacco shops, or the strippenkaarts successor, the OV chipcard.
The "randstadrail" uses the same strippenkaart, but you can also buy tickets on board at a machine so make sure you carry enough coins!
