Are you curious about what we are building in and around Amsterdam Zuid station? At 16.00 on Tuesday, 16 April 2024, we are organising a guided tour of all of the works. This walking tour will include a look at the additional passenger tunnel, the Brittenpassage.

On Thursday, 1 February 2024, the new GVB Service & Tickets desk in the existing passageway at Amsterdam Zuid station will open. The existing desk has to be removed to make space for the renovation of the passageway.
In Zuidas, we are building quite a lot of construction pits, often surrounded by steel sheet pile walls. But not all these walls are the same. The method used to drive a sheet pile into the ground can also vary according to the location. We take a look at how it all works.
The Nieuw-Zuid construction consortium (Mobilis, Boskalis, Van Gelder) has officially been given the go-ahead for the next phase of the regeneration of Amsterdam Zuid station.

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.
In 2023, we are hard at work renovating the existing passenger tunnel at Amsterdam Zuid station: the Minervapassage. In the future, it will be much taller and wider than it is now. We are starting by renovating part of the roof.
