Your ideas about public space in Parnas neighbourhood
The public space around the future Hartwig Museum in the Parnas neighbourhood will soon be given new green landscaping. We are consulting the local community on this and can now report on the initial results.
Spring holiday: work on tram 25 stop in Parnassusweg
From 16 February until 2 March 2026, work will be carried out on the temporary stop for trams 5 and 25 next to Parnassusweg. The work will include building a turning track to enable trams from Uithoorn to turn around. Various diversions will be in place.
Heavy transport: 34 girders for extra Schinkelbrug
During the weekend of 13-16 February 2026, our work widening the Schinkelbrug bridge will reach a major milestone. We will be hoisting the first girders for the new southern bridge into position. The bridge deck will ultimately be supported by these. The A10 Zuid will be closed.
Trains at Amsterdam Zuid to stop 100 m further west
Starting from 2 March 2026, the trains at Amsterdam Zuid station will be stopping around 100 m further to the west. From that date, passengers should expect a slightly longer walk to and from the passenger tunnel, including when changing trains/metros. Why is this?
Second-chance materials for Brittenpassage station plazas
We are set to relandscape the area around the new passageway at Amsterdam Zuid station. Since this will be temporary, we are trying to maximise the reuse of materials, such as bicycle racks, lamp posts, seating and even street paving.
16 February – 8 March: Amstelveenseweg viaduct disruption
From 16 February until 8 March 2026, we will be working next to the A10 viaduct across Amstelveenseweg on two construction gateways leading to our construction sites. The bus station will remain accessible but the main access to the metro station will be on the other side. There will be diversions in place for cyclists and pedestrians.
February: two weekends of road closures on the southern side of Amsterdam
During the weekends of 13–16 February and 20–23 February 2026, the A10 Zuid will be closed in the direction of the A1 Hengelo and A2 Utrecht, up to exit S108. From the A4 Schiphol, A9 Amstelveen and A10 West, additional travel time may increase by up to one hour.
Speed controls during work on A10 Zuid prove effective
From 23 to 25 January 2026, we partially closed the A10 Zuid to carry out work on the Schinkelbrug bridge. The police conducted speed controls to enable us to work safely. And it proved successful: only 30 vehicles exceeded the maximum speed of 70 km/h.
The CubeHouse hybrid wooden office tower completed
On the corner of Parnassusweg and Claude Debussylaan, the first hybrid wooden office tower in Zuidas has been completed: The CubeHouse. In the period ahead, BNP Paribas Nederland and Arcadis will be moving into the building.
How do you move 830,000 cubic metres of earth for the A10 tunnel?
1
In the future, part of the A10 Zuid will disappear into a tunnel. Building that tunnel will produce a huge amount of earth: as much as 830,000 cubic metres in total. How do we transport all that earth away? And what do we do with it afterwards?
7 and 21 February: Brittenpassage preview event
The Brittenpassage, the additional passenger tunnel at Amsterdam Zuid, is nearing completion. You can come and take a look for yourself on Saturday, 7 and 21 February. You will find out how to access the trains and metros in the future, where to park your bike and where you can go shopping.
Making space next to RAI to build A10 tunnel
Between 26 January and 7 February 2026, we will be felling around 600 trees next to the cycle path between the RAI and the A10 Zuid. This is necessary in order to move an underground stormwater drain later this year. There will be diversions in place for cyclists and pedestrians.
