Redevelopment of Stationsweg in Grou
We will get to work on Stationsweg in Grou. The street will be safer, greener and better prepared for the changing climate.
What are we going to do
Parkstraat
We will renew the asphalt and the paving on the roadway and the footways. This will keep the street clean and organised.
Stationsweg (between J.W. de Visserwei and Oedsmawei)
We will replace the old sewer and install a new sewer for rainwater. We will also renew the roadway. This will ensure better drainage of rainwater and reduce the risk of flooding.
Stationsweg (between Oedsmawei and the roundabout)
We will add more greenery to this part. We will also take measures to better collect rainwater, such as water storage. By doing so, we are preparing the street for the future, to ensure a pleasant living environment.
Grou roundabout
The roundabout at the start of Stationsweg will be redesigned. The objective is to make traffic safer and help it flow better. Measurements have shown that the roundabout is too crowded during the evening rush hour. That is why two traffic islands will be installed. These are strips in the middle of the road to separate traffic. They allow cyclists and pedestrians to cross safely. Cyclists will not have right of way.

Planning
- Start of 2026: sharing the first drafts with residents during a walk-in meeting, with room to share points for attention for the elaboration.
- Mid-2026: elaborating the design and sharing the definitive design with residents.
- Late 2026: preparing the work and selecting a contractor.
- Start of 2027: start of work.
Walk-in meeting
There was a walk-in meeting on Monday evening, 12 January. Residents had the opportunity to view and comment on the design of sub-area 1 (Parkstraat). They could also view the plans for the other sub-areas. Visitors could write down their comments. In the near future, a document will be made available containing the comments of residents and the local authority’s responses.
