A lot of construction work is taking place between Amsterdam Zuid station and Prinses Irenestraat. In the upcoming period, there will also be works in and around the station. On 3 July 2023, we are organising a walk-in meeting at the Thomaskerk to update you on what is happening.
On National Architecture Day (‘Dag van de Architectuur’), we will be focusing on our own area. Rather than singling out one of Zuidas’ acclaimed buildings, we will take a look at the infrastructure. What is the architectural vision behind Zuidasdok?
Between the metro tracks, we are hard at work on the sixth section of the roof for the additional station passageway at Amsterdam Zuid station: the Brittenpassage. On 20 June 2023, we will be pouring the concrete. After that, we have one further roof section for the new passageway to go.
Zuidas is much less busy during the summer. But, for us, this is actually a reason to continue working hard, including on the construction of the additional passageway at Amsterdam Zuid station: the Brittenpassage. Here’s an overview of our plans up to October 2023.
During the night of 9-10 June 2023, we moved the first roof section for the existing passageway at Amsterdam Zuid station around 114 m to the east. The huge sheet of concrete is now well and truly in position. We take a look back at the process.
From 12 June until early September 2023, the station entrance in Parnassusweg will be closed. During that period, we will be removing underground pipelines just in front of the entrance. It will still be possible to access Amsterdam Zuid station via the entrances in Zuidplein and Mahlerplein.
In Zuidas, we’re proud of our green spaces. They boost quality of life in the area and also prove useful during heavy downpours or extreme temperatures. But Japanese knotweed is something we would rather see the back of. ‘Not everything green is welcome.’
In the Minervapassage, the existing entrance to Amsterdam Zuid station, we are replacing the roof. In the evening of 9 June 2023, we will be moving a section of the new roof into position. This means that there will be another diversion in the passageway from 9 until 11 June.
Starting on the evening of Friday, 9 June, Amsterdam Zuid station will be the scene of a spectacle. We are moving a gigantic section of the new roof for the station entrance – the Minervapassage – into position. And you can come and watch the operation in person. All you need to do is register.
Between 5 and 14 August 2023, the A4 and A10 Zuid will be closed in the direction of Utrecht. There will also be a reduced train service. In this period, we will be moving two roof sections into position for the additional passageway at Amsterdam Zuid station: the Brittenpassage. So, how are we doing this?
Because of construction work, Parnassusweg will be closed to cars and buses travelling in the direction of the city in the last weekend of May and first weekend of June 2023. This will be followed in the summer by a two-month road closure for cars travelling out of the city.
On 5 May 2023, we started replacing the roof of the existing passageway at Amsterdam Zuid station. In the future, it will be much taller and wider than it is now. To make that possible, we demolished part of the existing roof. A photo report.
