Zuidas Amsterdam

1. Is it possible to cover infrastructure in the city?

• A2 Motorway Maastricht

• Rail tunnel Delft

• A2 Motorway Leidsche Rijn Utrecht

• Zuidas Amsterdam

• Possible, but always as a result of a

long struggle between public

administration on state level and

regional/local level

: competitive cooperation

A4 Motorway Schiedam, 53 years of negotiation

2. Is it realistic to cover infrastructure in the city?

Urban development is opportunity driven

Infrastructure development in the Netherlands is problem driven

Zuidas phase 1: No urgency for extending the A10 motorway

No urgency for extending the railway

Zuidas phase 2: (Strategical) denial of urgency for extending the A10

motorway and railway, opportunity for showcase public-private

partnership

Zuidas phase 3: Urgency for extending the A10 motorway

There has to be a) sence of urgency in solving an infrastructural problem AND

b) a (competitive) opportunity in urban development

CANOPEE - 28 et 29 septembre 2015 - Paris 12

Zuidas Amsterdam

3. How can covering of the infrastructure be valuated?

Valuation is not about the outcome of a social cost benefits analysis (analyse coûts-bénéfices)

Valuation is based upon priority (infrastructure) and contribution to ambitions

Zuidas Project

Priority related to A1 A4, A9, etc.

Minister of Infrastructure and transport

Policies and personal ambitions

Zuidas Project

Priority related to IJburg, IJ-oevers etc.
