Utrecht considering another huge residential development

UTRECHT – Plans are being considered for a new city district near Utrecht, between the two A12-freeway junctions, Oudenrijn and Lunetten. The long-range plans involving Utrecht, Nieuwegein and Houten, as well as the regional district Utrecht and the province, could see between 10,000 and 20,000 new homes and living units being realized in the area to the south of the city. In recent decades, the province also added other huge residential developments, De Meern, Nieuwegein and currently Leidsche Rijn, which is an ongoing project. Situated on the eastern edge of densely populated Randstad Holland, the province of Utrecht is the central region in the country. The city is also one of a few railway hubs in the country.
