On Wednesday, December 17, Breda takes an important step in the development of the new district ’t Zoet. The municipality and the province present the Steering Document, a guiding compass for the coming decades. The document outlines how the former CSM site on the Mark will transform into a vibrant, highly urban neighborhood with space for 4,000 to 6,000 homes, innovative companies, culture, and green areas. The Steering Document is now submitted for discussion to the city council.

Contents of the Steering Document

’t Zoet is one of the largest inner-city area developments in Breda. The Steering Document sets out the ambitions and principles: a district that is raw, close, and adaptive, firmly rooted in the city and ready for the future. The document provides guidance for decisions on housing, accessibility, sustainability, and livability, and forms the basis for further decision-making.
