Projects
Curious about a sample of what we can do? Here you'll find some impressive projects that the teams at the Verhelst Group have enthusiastically worked on over the past months. From demolition and earthworks to infrastructure works, and from sand extraction to asphalt production. The result is always worth it! And this is just a selection of our many projects, not nearly everything!
Infrastructure Works Verapaz Bridge
Foundation works, sewerage works, pavements, earthworks, demolition works... a lot is involved in the Verapaz Bridge project by Verhelst Aannemingen. The goal? To build a new bridge over the canal to relieve traffic flows at Dampoort. Check it out. More about this project
New sewerage and roads for the Vosseslag district
There is a good chance that anyone who wants to go to camping Lispanne in De Haan this summer will see the teams of Verhelst Constructions in action. On behalf of Farys (TMWV), we were given 970 calendar days to install a separated sewer system over a distance of 2 kilometers and to renew the roads in the Vosseslag neighborhood, the Kattereke- and Mezenlaan, the Mispelburgstraat, and the Zandstraat (in the territory of the municipality of De Haan).
Renovation works airport Ostend
The largest aircraft parking area at Ostend Airport is being renovated. Along with Apron 2, all service roads are also being rebuilt. The project started in April 2021 and is expected to be completed by December 2022. We are already deploying the major resources.
Wallenius Wilhelmsen Solutions expands terminal
For the construction of a new terminal in Zeebrugge, Wallenius Wilhelmsen Solutions enlisted our groundworkers. The port environment, the scale of the project, and the short execution time made it a challenge that we gladly accepted.
Redesign of the Natiënlaan Intersection
That Verhelst Constructions does not shy away from any challenge is proven by this project: transforming the intersection on the Natiënlaan (N49) with the Kalvekeetdijk in Knokke-Heist into a roundabout. For the bicycle and footpaths, which run separately from the car traffic via an underground square, the necessary access ramps and stairs are also provided. Because the construction site is on a busy access road and in a densely populated area, less than 4 weeks per phase is scheduled for the road construction. No small feat given the scale of the work: excavating (and removing) 18,000 m3 of soil, laying sewer systems, and applying 16,000 m3 of asphalt. The first half of the roundabout (with roadworks) has meanwhile been completed. We are therefore halfway.
Reconstruction of Duinbergenlaan
Verhelst Aannemingen was responsible for the redevelopment of the Duinbergenlaan in Knokke. In 2017, an initial project was already carried out here, and now we have completed a complex renovation of the sewer network. Since the connection between the station and the dyke is located right in the tourist area, the biggest challenge was to minimize disruption for both residents and tourists as much as possible. Therefore, the project was divided into different phases, with work halted during holiday periods. The sewer under the tram tracks was even laid at night so the tram could run again on Monday.
