College and stadium collaborate on Spoor C
New step in the area through joint agreements
The municipal executive has made agreements with the stadium owners regarding the further development of the stadium. This set of agreements is the result of an intensive and constructive participation process. With this important milestone, the next step can be taken in the development of the Spoorzone.
Deputy Paul de Beer: “A large-scale area development such as Spoor C stands or falls with good consultation. That is why the municipality has taken ample time over the past year and a half to engage intensively and constructively with stakeholders in the area. This joint effort has borne fruit: through good consultation, agreement has been reached on the submitted views and the design has been further optimized.”
Rick Mijnsbergen, on behalf of the shareholders of the Atik Stadium: “We are pleased with the constructive collaboration with the municipality. This has resulted in various agreements on, among other things, damage settlement, parking facilities and cooperation in the study into the further development of our stadium.” This further development focuses, among other things, on adding six building layers along the south and west sides of the stadium. To make this possible, agreements have also been made with Alwel. “This development contributes to improving the living and residential environment and also gives us as a stadium the opportunity to grow with the ambitions of Spoor C. This allows us to guarantee the continuity of the stadium.”
Ready for the next phase
Reaching this point marks a milestone in the area development of Spoor C. Now that the municipal executive has approved these agreements and the alignment with the surrounding area has been successfully completed, the legal basis has been definitively established. The zoning plan for Spoor C is now fully ready to be adopted by the municipal council. The area between the railway yard and the Vliet will thus take on a completely new and vibrant character.
Over the past few years, the vision for this district has been significantly sharpened and made more ambitious. Whereas earlier designs still relied heavily on employment, the focus has now consciously shifted to a broader housing supply. This fits seamlessly with the current housing needs in Roosendaal. Spoor C is thus transforming into an open, accessible and mixed-use part of the city where residents and visitors can live, work, learn and recreate.
