The relocation of the Sporthallen Zuid sports complex will not be happening after all. The complex will be refurbished and extended on its current site, as the 2023 Spring Memorandum (‘Voorjaarsnota 2023’) reveals. This puts an end to the planned construction of 550 homes in that area.

ProRail will be working on the railway tracks between 13 and 26 November, and it will not be possible to access Amsterdam Zuid station for two weeks. The Zuidasdok project will make use of this train-free period to relocate the control building for the rail and motorway bridges over the Schinkel.

The bridge connecting Damloperspad and Jachthavenweg, just to the south of the A10, has been temporarily restored. As a result, it is at last possible to walk all the way around De Nieuwe Meer again, much to the delight of many.
