Making room underground for Ravel housing
On 25 November 2024, we will start work moving cables and pipelines on the east side of Beethovenstraat. This is in order to create space to build The Harmony complex with 150 rented homes. There will be diversions in place for cyclists and pedestrians.
Working together on a vibrant Kenniskwartier
Kenniskwartier (Knowledge District) is developing fast. VU Campus is being regenerated, around 2,700 homes are set to be built and there are new amenities and green areas under development along with a thriving centre for research and education. All of this in what will soon be an amazingly accessible location.
Laying of Maurice Ravellaan for new Ravel district
Starting in September 2023, we will spend a year working on the entrance to the new Ravel residential district: Maurice Ravellaan, with space for pedestrians, cyclists and plenty of green areas. We are also digging an actual canal, complete with bridges to the AFC sports fields.
New speed limit of 30 in Gustav Mahlerlaan-West
In February 2023, the maximum permitted speed in Gustav Mahlerlaan-West will be reduced from 50 km/h to 30 km/h. This will make this section of the Kenniskwartier between the Vrije Universiteit and Parnassusweg somewhat safer, before around 500 new homes are built there in the near future.
Site access road for housing complexes and Conservatorium
Two new housing complexes are set to be built behind the AkzoNobel, Stibbe and the St. Nicolaaslyceum buildings. To enable construction to happen, we are creating a site access road starting on Monday, 13 September 2021. It will be used for work on the Kapel & Convict site.
