Huismansingel is a key traffic artery on the TU Delft Campus. To make the campus future-proof, this road will be completely reconstructed. This aligns with the TU Delft Campus Strategy, in which accessibility and mobility are central. Traffic volumes have been increasing for years and are expected to continue to grow. A reconstruction is therefore necessary to improve road safety and traffic flow. The Municipality of Delft has reviewed the plans and approved them with regard to traffic safety and uniformity.

What will change?

The redevelopment will transform Huismansingel into a high-quality entrance to the campus. Key elements include:

• Safety and capacity: The road will be widened to two single-lane carriageways and technically upgraded, creating space for increased car and bicycle traffic.
• New traffic layout: Two junctions (Molengraaffsingel and Cyclotronweg) will be replaced by a single junction. This will improve connections to the N470 and A13. Traffic from Cyclotronweg will be routed via Molengraaffsingel; traffic from Adri Boslaan via Watermanweg.
• Green appearance: A wide central reservation with trees, cycle paths and footpaths, and an avenue-style layout will enhance the road’s character and strengthen ecological quality.

What does this mean for you?

The first phase of the works will take place between the Molengraaffsingel/Watermanweg junction and Heertjeslaan. This may cause temporary disruption and diversions, which we will minimise as much as possible. Phase one will logically be followed by phase two, which involves works at the Huismansingel/Watermanweg/Molengraaffsingel junction itself. Preparations for this phase are currently under way.

Schedule

• November 2025 – January: Cycle path and footpath on the eastern side.
• January – March: Cycle path and footpath on the western side.
• March – May: New carriageway on the eastern side.
• April – May: Cycle path and footpath on the northern side of Heertjeslaan and connection to Huismansingel.
