Amsterdam Zuid station

Amsterdam Zuid station is the Netherland's fastest growing station and is well on its way to becoming the second largest station in Amsterdam. To accommodate current and future passenger numbers, we are expanding the station. For the time being, the station is still nestled between the carriageways of the A10 Zuid, but it will soon be diverted underground, creating more space.

Comfortable transfers

A state-of-the-art public transport hub that brings together train, metro, and bus – that is the prospect for Amsterdam Zuid station. All the public transport will soon be at a short distance of each other. This will pave the way for a fast and comfortable transfer. The metros of the North/South line (line 52) and the trams of the Amstel line will have their starting and terminal point here. In addition to regular trains, international trains may also call at the station in the future. On the south side of the Amsterdam Zuid station, space has been reserved for an extra platform and a fifth and sixth track.

Two entrances

Soon, the tram and bus stops, the taxis and the kiss & ride zone where passengers are picked up and dropped off will be just outside the station. We are widening the existing station entrance, the Minervapassage, and a second entrance will be added, the Brittenpassage. The station area will have a wide range of shops and facilities.

Room for quality

Diverting the A10 Zuid underground at the heart of Zuidas will free up no less than 120,000 m2 of space, the equivalent of 24 football pitches. The public space surrounding the station will be re-landscaped, with squares and walking and cycling routes. Green areas will feature prominently. Diverting the motorway underground will improve air quality in the centre of Zuidas and reduce noise pollution.
