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.
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?
A10 Zuid speed controls during works on 23-25 January
From 23 to 25 January 2026, the police will be conducting speed controls at the Schinkelbrug bridge. On those days, we will be working on the new southern bridge right next to the traffic on the A10 Zuid. We are determined to do this work safely, both for us and for road users.
What’s that huge pile of sand doing next to the A4?
Next to the motorway running from Schiphol/The Hague to the A10 Zuid, there is a gigantic pile of sand. Not much is happening there yet, but it will ultimately serve as a key component in the complete regeneration of the De Nieuwe Meer junction. So what is going on?
Central government and region to decide on Zuidasdok progress
The Dutch House of Representatives and the Amsterdam City Council have been notified by letter about progress on the Zuidasdok project. This is a follow-up to the report on the first half of 2025 and the consultations between central government and the region about the financial shortfall affecting Zuidasdok.
Weekend of 23-25 January: A4 closed in direction of A10 Zuid

Major Zuidasdok works in 2026 and how they will affect you
In 2026, we will be hard at work on two outdoor Zuidasdok projects: the regeneration of Amsterdam Zuid station and the reconstruction of the De Nieuwe Meer junction. These will inevitably have some impact for you. We present an overview below.
Flyover lifting operation successfully completed
During the weekend of 13-14 December 2025, we lifted the very first girders into position for the new flyover at the De Nieuwe Meer junction. From Joy Jaagpad tennis club, around 170 people were able to watch the spectacular lifting operation at close hand.
Preparations for tunnel walls test at Courthouse
In early 2026, we will be testing construction methods for the walls of the A10 Zuid tunnel. We are doing this close to the location where the tunnel will be, in this case between the Courthouse and the Buitenveldert cemetery. In preparation, we will be cutting down 35 trees here.
The technology behind a safe A10 tunnel
From 2035, the A10 Zuid will go underground at the heart of Zuidas, in-between all of the buildings and Amsterdam Zuid station. A wide variety of technical installations will then guide you safely towards the light at the end of the A10 tunnel – even on the odd occasion when things go wrong.
Additional work sites for construction of tunnel
For the construction of the A10 tunnel, addition work sites will be needed. The locations are next to the Zuidasdok area. We will need to apply for permits for these sites. However, we are having discussions with stakeholders first.
