The provisional design for Europaplein-Oost has been completed. In recent years, there have been several events where we have discussed the new layout of Europaplein-Oost with local residents. We’re interested in finding out what you think of the design.
We would usually present the provisional design at a special event to hear your views in person. Unfortunately, the coronavirus measures make that impossible. As an alternative, we are therefore presenting the provisional design in the form of a video. We look forward to reading your views underneath this message.
Attractive, pleasant place
This design is a result of several meetings. In April 2019, the first meeting was held where we asked local residents and users of Europaplein-Oost for their ideas on re-landscaping the area. The basic idea was to have an attractive, pleasant place with more greenery, fewer parking spaces and the artwork Virtual Fountains by artist Femke Schaap. We then set to work on all the ideas, suggestions, and points for improvement.

Draft design
In January 2020, we presented the draft design for the new layout. We received numerous reactions. Although many were positive, there were also some critical voices. Where possible, we have taken these views on board and incorporated them in the provisional design.
In July and August 2026, the underpass beneath the road and railway viaducts in Beethovenstraat will be closed to cars and buses for four weeks. During this period, we will be preparing for the construction of the A10 tunnel. Further along, the Beethovenstraat/Ravellaan junction will also be redesigned.
During the second of four participation phases, we discussed the final design for the new carriageway with local residents and stakeholders. For the service road and green spaces, the preferred option was the 'De Fitte Boele' design. Here is an update on the redesign of De Boelelaan Midden.
We are carrying out a survey into the accessibility of the different neighbourhoods in Amsterdam Zuid. For example, are there pavements that are difficult to use or pedestrian crossings that feel unsafe or confusing? We would very much like to hear your views. Will you complete our online questionnaire (in Dutch)?
