Dutch Building Day: join us for a walk across the new flyover

On Saturday, 20 June 2026, you are welcome to visit our construction site at the Schinkelbrug. Experience the lifting cranes up close, make your own concrete and join a walk across the new flyover towards the A4/Schiphol. Visit Dutch Building Day – and bring your children or grandchildren too.

1 November: Brittenpassage opens at Amsterdam Zuid station

A long-awaited milestone: after years of construction, we will open the additional passenger tunnel at Amsterdam Zuid station on 1 November 2026. At 15 metres wide, the new Brittenpassage, with its lifts, escalators, shops and bicycle parking facility, will significantly improve the travel experience.

Weekend of 12-15 June: A10 Zuid towards the A4 and A10 West closed

From Friday, 12 June 2026 at 22.00 until Monday, 15 June at 05.00, the A10 Zuid will be closed from the S108 access road (inner ring road) in the direction of the A4 and A10 West. The roads connecting the A10 Noord to the A10 Oost and the A10 Oost to the A10 Zuid will also be closed. You can expect journey times to increase by 30-60 minutes.

Lifting the final girders for the new Schinkelbrug

In June 2026, we will complete the main structures of the two new bridges that form part of the Schinkelbrug. During two weekend operations, we will lift the final giant girders into place for the new bridges on the northern and southern sides. How does this work, and when will the bridges actually be finished?

Rapid progress towards completion of the A10 Zuid flyover

During the weekend of 23 and 24 May 2026, we lifted girders into place for the new flyover at the De Nieuwe Meer junction. With 96 of the 120 girders now installed, we are approaching completion early next year. A day of lifting operations in pictures.

Work begins on station plazas for the Brittenpassage

Large sections of the public space next to both entrances of Amsterdam Zuid station are currently fenced off. Over the coming months, we will construct the new station plazas for the Brittenpassage, the new station entrance that is scheduled to open no later than 2027.

In the picture: sliding 2.4 million kilos of concrete above the Vivaldipassage

An important milestone in the construction of the Vivaldipassage: we slid a gigantic roof section weighing almost 2.5 million kilos beneath the railway tracks of the future bicycle and pedestrian tunnel. How did this operation work, and why was it carried out now?

Wednesday afternoons: guided tour Zuidas or Zuidasdok

Every Wednesday afternoon, a guided tour departs from our Information Centre. One week we’ll visit the Zuidasdok projects, the next week we’ll walk through the Zuidas area. No registration is required for these tours, simply join in. The tours are in Dutch but Q&A in English is possible.

Zuidasdok Projects

Zuidasdok is one of the largest infrastructure projects in the Netherlands. The A10 Zuid is being widened between the Amstel and De Nieuwe Meer junctions. In the centre of Zuidas, the A10 Zuid is being brought underground. Thanks to the motorway tunnel, Amsterdam Zuid station can develop into a high-quality transport hub where train, metro, tram and bus come together. An additional station passage will be added, the train platforms will be wider, tram stops will be built directly on the south side of the station and bus stops on the north side. Than, Amsterdam Zuid is ready for a third train platform with a check-in for the train to Brussels, Paris, London, Berlin and possibly Düsseldorf and Cologne.
