New construction of MOTION Move College and sports hall

We have good news about the project "New building MOTION Beweeg College and sports hall" on the Van Doornenplantsoen. The environmental permit for the new school and sports hall was granted in mid-April 2025. This is an important step that brings the project closer to the construction phase.

Challenge: grid congestion

Recently, the project faced an unexpected challenge: grid congestion in South Holland. This means that there is currently insufficient capacity on the electricity grid to realize new large-scale connections. As a result, the newly built school and sports hall cannot be directly connected to the power grid. The municipality is working with all stakeholders to quickly reach a solution to provide the building with alternative energy. As a result, it is not yet clear exactly when construction work will begin.
