The project

More greenery around the town hall

In Bocholt, APK Wegenbouw they reconstructed APK Groenaanleg the entire area around 't Huis van de Gemeente, including Pastoorsdreef. The municipality of Bocholt wanted more greenery, less hardscaping, and better water management.

Drainage, paving and access

The work began on September 5, 2022, while the municipal building had to remain accessible. Ben Creemers’ team APK Wegenbouw installed sewer pipes and paving, with new parking spaces in permeable concrete. Old structures were demolished for new stairs and a ramp for people with disabilities.

Trees, shrubs and mats

APK Groenaanleg From December 2022 to February 2023, they planted trees and shrubs. At the end of March, the team of David Diricks returned to install grass and wildflower mats. Because immediate results were expected, we chose to install mats instead of sowing them. It was the first time the team used wildflower mats.

Two years of maintenance

After the completion of the project, our own landscape team maintains the greenery for another two years.
