Where can you cool off in Zuidas?

Temperatures are climbing back towards 30°C this week. So, instead of another update on social housing, the widening of the A10 Zuid or the regeneration of Amsterdam Zuid station, here are a few ways to keep cool in Zuidas.

8 weeks of free fitness classes at De Boelelaan

From 10 August 2026, we are joining forces with VU Sports Centre to offer eight weeks of free group fitness classes at De Boelelaan Midden. Sign up and join in – from lively salsa classes to energetic boot camps. Everyone is welcome.

What do you need to know about the new Amsterdam Zuid station?

On Sunday, 1 November, Amsterdam Zuid station will move to the new Brittenpassage for the coming years. We are already receiving lots of questions about the new metro platforms, escalators and staircases, bicycle parking facilities and much more. Here is everything you need to know.

New artwork planned near Beatrixpark

In 2028, Zuidas will gain a new public artwork on the waterfront near Nobu Residences Park Meadows Amsterdam and Beatrixpark. From a shortlist of three candidates, the committee chose ‘Onvoorzien’ (Unforeseen) by artist Femke Herregraven.

A10 Zuid widening above Amstelveenseweg progressing well

Until Monday, 17 August 2026, Amstelveenseweg beneath the A10 Zuid is closed to motorised traffic. During the closure, which lasts just over six weeks, we are constructing additional viaducts as part of the widening of the A10 Zuid. What have we achieved so far?

Underpass beneath Beethovenstraat viaducts closed for four weeks

In July and August 2026, the underpass beneath the road and railway viaducts in Beethovenstraat will be closed to cars and buses for four weeks. During this period, we will be preparing for the construction of the A10 tunnel. Further along, the Beethovenstraat/Ravellaan junction will also be redesigned.

Pile ‘Ryan’ driven into the ground alongside the A10 Zuid

Between the Schinkelbrug and Piet Kranenbergpad, we installed the final pile for the so-called pile mattress. Student Ryan is now permanently connected to the pile after winning a competition that gave him the opportunity to write his name on it.

Dismantling of colourful ‘box building’ alongside the A10 Zuid

The distinctive red-and-blue box building alongside the A10 Zuid is being removed. Over the coming weeks, the containers that make up the temporary building formerly used by Amsterdam UMC-Cancer Center Amsterdam (CCA) will be lifted out. The site is needed for a temporary construction road for the future A10 Zuid tunnel.

10–12 July: A4 and A10 Zuid closed up to S108

During the weekend of 10–12 July 2026, part of the A10 Zuid will be closed in the direction of the A1 Hengelo and the A2 Utrecht. During this closure, we will lift girders into place for the new southern Schinkelbrug bridge. Additional journey times may be up to one hour.

Construction projects

Amsterdam Zuidas is building a completely new city district, together with developers and contractors. Numerous construction projects contribute to this. Zuidas started out mainly as an office location for leading companies, but now the area wants to be more than that: a complete, unique district where working, living and life come together.
