New floor for Hollands Spoor

The station hall and passenger tunnel of The Hague Hollands Spoor will be given a new floor finish.

The same gray terrazzo tile was chosen as in the newly realized part of the passenger tunnel on the Laakhaven side. This creates an coherent image in terms of floor finish throughout the entire route from the station square to the entrance at Laakhaven. There will be a different pattern in the station hall because the station hall is a substantially different space than the passenger tunnel due to its spacious proportions and great height.

 

Meanwhile in Roermond

In Roermond, the end of the renovation is in sight, below is a photo compilation of the current situation.

Festive opening station square and station building Zwolle

Today the renovated station square with underground bikeparking and the renovated station building of Zwolle were festively opened. Equipped with many sustainable facilities, especially in the field of water management, the beautiful station square with diverse vegetation and a pond is an asset to the city. After more than 100 years, the station building with renewed authenticity and retail functions is still a current and recognizable building for the city.

The aftermovie of this event can be viewed here.

 

Extraordinary painting restored

At Deventer station, the largely disappeared cast iron windows have been made new on the basis of a few remaining windows. The skylight has thus been restored to its original image and detail, of course with due observance of the most modern safety requirements.
The waiting rooms at Deventer station are part of the platform roof. It turned out that the repair work was quite extensive. This gave the opportunity to restore the existing oak ceilings to their original state. The special silhouette drawings by illustrator Chris Kras (Jan Feith) have also been restored and preserved.

Station Geldermalsen revisited

The redevelopment and restoration of the special Geldermalsen station building was completed in 2015, designed by Ruland Architecten. At the time, the restoration of the outbuilding fell outside the scope, although this was provided for in the design. We are therefore very pleased that this last part of the station has finally been restored. As in the main building, the frame divisions have been restored and painted in the original color palette. The masonry with its special facade drawing in colored brick has been restored. The unique island station of Geldermalsen, a special part of the industrial heritage, has been restored to its full glory.
