Village heart Zwartewaal
Village heart Zwartewaal
In 2016, the Council adopted the Zwartewaal 2030 livability vision with implementation program. One of the activities from this implementation program is the area vision Christinalaan. This area vision has been the basis of the development Dorpshart Zwartewaal; the construction of 85 homes and a facilities cluster consisting of a school, village hall and sports hall.
Participation
Residents, organizations and other stakeholders are closely involved in the development of Zwartewaal Village Heart. Together with the surrounding area, the ''Village Heart'' model was chosen from several future visions in late 2017. After that, a sounding board group was set up to come up with the details of the village heart together. Three urban designs were then developed and voted on by residents. In 2020, the city council chose implementation variant 1, in which the council followed the sounding board group's advice.
This implementation variant was further developed in a design process. Design sessions were organized with users about the facilities cluster. The sounding board group was also involved in the development of the design plan for Zwartewaal Village Heart.
Construction
The municipality is working with developer Zenzo Social Real Estate to build the facilities cluster and housing. The facilities cluster will be built first. This will be followed by the construction of the housing units in several phases. They will be social housing, ground-floor apartments, upper-level apartments with commercial spaces underneath, single-family homes, semi-detached and detached homes.
The expected schedule is as follows:
- December 2023: start construction facility cluster
- Mid school year 2024-2025: completion of facilities cluster
- From 2025: housing construction in three phases
A temporary route has been created for construction traffic between Provincialeweg N218 and Smalleweg. Construction traffic will use the route: Smalleweg - Sluisweg - Lijnbaanweg to get to the construction site.
You can read more about the construction of the homes on our Construction page.
