Heijmans’ part of the project is worth approximately €60m.

Vestide, the student accommodation division of Woonbedrijf housing, will be responsible for the rental and management of the residences for 50 years.

The construction company said that the first partial delivery of the project is planned for the start of the 2023-24 academic year.

Furthermore, the companies have planned to develop the project plans in more detail using the inputs from TU/e students in the coming months.

In June last year, Heijmans was selected by the Rotterdam city council for the construction of the Leeuwenkuil op Zuid project with 226 new homes.

To be located on the south-western side of the Laan op Zuid, the project is part of the Parkstad plan and was expected to be worth around €70m.
