Start of construction of nine social housing units in Maasbommel

This is an old message.

In Kampstraat in Maasbommel, Alderman Marieke van den Boom of the municipality of West Maas en Waal and Director-Manager Marinus Kempe of Woonstichting De Kernen laid the first stone for the construction of nine homes.

There will be three blocks of three compact homes intended for households of up to three people. These homes will replace the six senior citizen homes that have been demolished in phases in recent years. The homes are nearly energy neutral. In terms of installation technology, it is unique that the outdoor part of the heat pump is integrated into the storage rooms in the garden.

Area addressed

In collaboration with the municipality of West Maas en Waal, the rest of the area is also being tackled in addition to the construction of the nine homes. For example, in consultation with the tennis club behind the homes, the boundary fence between the homes and the tennis club has been replaced by a kokowall, a plantable noise barrier. The outside of this is finished with sustainable coconut fibers.

The municipality is going to make the entire Kampstraat more climate-adaptive and give it a major facelift. The road surface, sidewalks, and green areas will be renewed. A storm sewer will be installed to relieve the (sewage) sewer system. Most parking spaces will also be greened by using open paving. Next, a meeting place with a bench and green decoration will be created. Finally, the utility companies will replace cables and pipes.
