  • Mens En Kosmos in Huygens' Hofwijck*
    Robert-Jan van Pelt Mens en kosmos in Huygens' Hofwijck* Inleiding Constantijn Huygens was een van de opmerkelijkste Nederlanders van de zeventiende eeuw. Als secretaris van stadhouder Frederik Hendrik gaf hij mede vorm aan de politiek van Holland in de Gouden Eeuw, als dichter leverde hij een belangrijke bijdrage aan de Nederlandse literatuur, als edelman virtuoso vervulde Huygens, heer van Zuylichem, een sleutelrol in de culturele contacten tussen Holland, Engeland en Frankrijk, en als vader bracht hij een zoon groot die door intellect en opvoeding was voorbeschikt een van de grootste geleerden van zijn tijd te worden. In dit essay zal een ander 'kind' van Huygens onder de loep worden genomen. Dit 'kind' is de tuin van Huygens' buitenhuis Hofwijck, dat is gelegen in de buurt van Voorburg (Zuid-Holland). Huidige plattegrond van Hofwijck Hofwijck zal worden besproken als een evenbeeld van Huygens: met hem ouder wordend en, hoewel door onbegrip verminkt, tot in onze tijd voortlevend.

  • The Randstad : Face and Form
    IFoU 2006 Beijing International Conference Modernization and Regionalism – Re-inventing the Urban Identity THE RANDSTAD : FACE AND FORM E. Brandes Faculty of Urbanism TU Delft, P.O. Box 5043, Delft, The Netherlands, *Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT: The Dutch poly-nuclear metropolis the product of urban design and policies of spatial planning over many years. The underlying landscape and the history of urban planning are the base of its current form and face. Now the different urban areas get absorbed in the new unity the Randstad. Like before a masterplan should be made at the higher scale, and on local scale guidelines and flexible realization plans. A plan which respects the existing cities and landscape, combined with an authority and a policy to realize it. The Netherlands have to continue its valuable tradition in urbanization. KEYWORDS: Randstad, a poly-nuclear structure by landscape and history, differentiation, policy of concentration, at the urban scale and the regional scale 1 INTRODUCTION The Netherlands are currently in the process of forming a metropolis. Nowadays about six million inhabitants are living in the relatively small area Holland (the western part of the Netherlands). [1] The urban area is made up of a number of ‘big’ cities, middle large towns and the open or partly urbanized landscape in between. This poly-nuclear constellation differs from that of Paris and Beijing, examples of cities, which mono-centrally spread them selves out over a whole region. This urban network is there for considered by Dutch planners as a metropolis, although quantatively it falls short of the real large cities of the world.

Both However, the high population density and Netherlands are now moving ahead projects mesh with the Dutch government’s close proximity of cities in the Randstad rapidly, changing cityscapes by the end of energetic strategy to improve national actually represent an asset for development the decade. The first is an extension of the mobility and promote transportation modes of transit networks, explaining why the North European high-speed link (HSL) rail other than the automobile. The high urban Ministry of Transport, Public Works and network for major cities within the country, concentration in the centre of the country Water Management has decided to invest with the southern part of the network is one reason why congestion has gradually in an exciting light rail project that can planned to begin operations in April 2007 grown to a critical level on trunk roads in compete well with the automobile over (Fig. 1 and Table 1). The second, expected this small area—the Randstad conurbation short distances of around 10 to 20 km.

  • Future Mayor Tunneling Projects in the Netherlands, 2013-2020
    CONGRESS OF THE ITALIAN TUNNELLING SOCIETY “ TUNNELLING AND UNDERGROUND SPACE IN EUROPE DEVELOPMENT ” Bologna, 17, 18,19 October 2013 Future mayor tunneling projects in the Netherlands, 2013-2020 M. Lipsius, P. Jovanovic Movares Nederland B.V., Utrecht, the Netherlands ABSTRACT: The tunneling industry in the Netherlands has a long history concerning immerse tunnels as well as cut & cover tunnels. In the last 20 years the shield driven tunneling technology (TBM) has been successfully introduced in the Netherlands where the soil condition is very poor. Some of challenging projects ware successfully finished such as: high speed line tunnel Green Heart, till 2006 the biggest in the world, metro Amsterdam, 3 TBM tunnels at Betuweroute, Rotterdam to German border etc. The experience gained with the tunneling projects in the past has created the possibilities for the new projects in the Netherlands. This paper deals with the upcoming mayor tunneling highway projects in the Netherlands in the period 2013-2020 such as: Rotterdamse baan at the Hague, Rijnlandroute at the Voorschoten, Leiden and East-gate tunnel to Brainpark at Laarbeek. All these tunnels have similarities concerning their function , construction method and efficiency to their environment. Engineering company Movares showed that these tunnels are technically and financially feasible. The estimated limited higher cost of the bored tunnels makes them a attractive alternative on regular tunneltypes. 1 Introduction New infrastructure requires appropriate adjustment to its environment. Both in urban and in rural areas is often considerable public resistance present against the new highways. People really do not want to hear, see and smell the traffic which lead to creation of pressure on the planning and processes.
