Amsterdam’s New ($46BN) Circeld Airport?

Amsterdam is planning to construct a new Mega Airport, potentially located on an artificial island off the coast of the Netherlands.
This ambitious project aims to be one of the largest airports in Europe and involves significant engineering challenges. Today, we delve into the incredible engineering behind this mega airport and examine how it will revolutionize travel to Amsterdam.

I find it consistently appalling how people buy/rent housing near airports and then complain about the noise. A good example is the Denver Airport which was built 17 miles east of Denver. Now there are hundreds of homes and hotels near the airport. I think anyone who buys a house near an airport should have to sign an agreement to NOT complain about the noise, which has dramatically decreased over the last few decades. Of course, if this airport in built in the North Sea, having housing nearby will be nearly impossible.

[@Saaihead]

The Netherlands are small. Schiphol has been extending since WW2, introducing noise and pollution to places where 1.5 million of people were already living. People don't move to airports, this airport came to them (us).

[@andyhorvath6630]

@@Saaihead That's simply not true. If you look at the growth of population around the airport in the last few decades you'll see that's a lie. People moved en mass to the vicinity of the airport since the 1970's (because of work and other benefits?) and then started to complain. Local governments are to blame too of course, they knowingly started all the housing development around the airport. Just take a look at Hoofddorp, Nieuw Vennep, Aalsmeer. There are relatively few people and families who lived all their lives in the area, but the majority of people complaining CHOSE to live by the airport.

its already been done with Kansai International Airport in Osaka, Japan! it was an engineering marvel until a problem arises when they found out it is sinking 2 cms. every year! Now the engineers are on a dilemma have to solve this clear and present danger on that said airport.

[@NicoSteentjes]

One issue with Schiphol is that the region does not have a prevailing wind direction. There is a need for a north-south and east-west runway, each some 5 km long. This would make the island rather large and it would have an enormous impact on water currents in the North Sea... not to mention shipping lanes. Also Schiphol has presently 5 main runways (and an aux. one), three north-south and two east-west. Usually one is in service for landing and one for take-offs (depending on wind direction and trying to limit noise in residential areas). On busy days, airplanes line up at 1 to 2 mins intervals for most of the day... For any Schiphol replacement to allow growth of air-traffic, the Island airport would have to have at least four main runways, probably five or six. The circular runway is a nice idea but would require lots of technical en regulatory work. And considering the number of planes, it would need two circular runways at least. It can be done, but the cost estimate will be on the low end... I'd say its more of a 100 billion Euros project. It will be much easier and cheaper to activate existing plans to use the "Outer Schiphol" airport, named Lelystad. Some 50 kms to the east in an agricultural area. It would need way better infrastructure like airport facilities, a railway station etc. Sure, there are tens of thousands of people living in the flight paths, but not 1.3 million.

[@sander001100]

When I think beyond all limits, you can go a step Furter. If the Nord Sea airport is more located to the southwest, it is logical that this airport gets a connection with Great Brittan. So, this Nord Sea airport is not only an airport of the Netherlands but also of VK. Isn’t that amazing? And it also gives an alternative of the Eurotunnel from Calais to Dover. The location of Nord Sea airport should be between Rotterdam and The Hague on the one site and the Felixstowe at the other site. The main goal of this airport should be long-distance flight, with highspeed train connection with London, Birmingham, Manchester, Amsterdam, Berlin, and Northern Europe.

[@MegaLomanic_Builds]

Fantastic idea! Do you contact the UK, Belgium, and The Netherlands? or should I do it 😉

[@Xonarous]

[@BlackHawkNL]

Hi there, I just wanna say I am absolutely stumped as I lived right next to Schiphol for the majority of my life and I must say you really get used to the noise. At my old place we had a plane fly over at least once every 7-10 minutes and at some point you barely even hear them anymore... I'm sure I'll comment once or twice more if I see something I recognize! Stay awesome man and thank you for unknowingly making my day with this!❤❤❤ Edit: this video topic alone earned you at least one new subscriber. 😊 Edit2: now that I watched the whole video it would have actually been lovely if I hadn't had to get used to the noise... And brother do we need more houses. A lot of young people who wanna move out can't do this because the houses are way too expensive 🫰🏽

[@Driekess]

This is actually an interesting option since Schiphol's capacity is stagnating, but the demand is still rising. As a mega-hub of KLM, it would make sense to extend or exchange its infrastructure this way, considering the lack of space to grow on land, noise complaints, and corresponding housing issues. It could potentially, at some point, completely change its hub location as is happening with Dubai international airport changing to Al Maktoum international, a mega hub for Emirates in example.

[@PlanesandTrainsNL]

The same here i also live on a flight path to the Kaagbaan. I also have no Issues at al. The 9/10 times i dont even know that there is a plane flying above me.

[@RealConstructor]

@@MegaLomanic_BuildsSchiphol Airport does a lot to minimize the noise pollution for surrounding towns. They have the benefit of six runways, so they can vary between five runways when the weather doesn’t play a role. The sixth (Oostbaan) is a short one and can only be used for landing in strong headwinds. I live under the approach of the Aalsmeer runway and planes go over my house at 650 meters height. This only takes about one or two hours at most and then they change the approach lane or the runway. I don’t mind this at all. The difficulty I have with Schiphol Airport are the heavy cargo planes at the brink of night and morning. At 00:30 to 02:00 and from 04:30 to 06:00. The panes are rattling in the window frames when they depart and you are rudely awakened by the rolling noise waves of 60 to 100dB. If they move the cargo to Amsterdam Lelystad Airport I would welcome this very very much.

[@n7y8c7]

[@janduijnstee1079]

I think it’s a good idea, but it’s too ‘perfect’ to work out. If they would do a airport on the northsea I think they would need to go all the way, like a boat or train to multiple places in the uk (because schiphol is already a place where people transfer a lot)

[@leonvanpetegem1663]

Please dont comment if you don’t live there. The airport expanded a lot more than was promised to the people. New runways caused new problems Schiphol never cared

[@amrhiari9284]

There always will be a problem of noise it never-ending even if they made far away from shores, they would kill coral or even sea life ,also there will be an ongoing cost to maintain the island its not a solution , making it on a land would be better with finding solution for the same problem without creating new challenges with island, for example make huge state of art sound barriers and many solutions could put into test.

Big mistake from the creator of this video. The airport is not owned by the city of Amsterdam. Royal Schiphol Group N.V. ownes multiple airports in the Netherlands. It is 69,77% owned by the Dutch government, 20,03% by the city of Amsterdam and 2,2% by the city of Rotterdam. If Schiphol airport would move to sea, then land of previous Schiphol airport would be free to use to the local government of Haarlemmermeer, where Schiphol airport is located. There would be no direct benefit for the city of Amsterdam. Amsterdam is only added to the name to make it more recognizable for international travellers. For almost 100 years the name Amsterdam did not appear in the official name

[@Frank_Reijnen]

This was and is, never an option in the Netherlands. I’m 45 years old, never heard of it.

[@marianandnorbert]

This sounds ridiculous, the north sea is famous for vile, strong and unpredictable winds. Building an airport right in the middle of it is a stupid idea, not to mention the insane amount of soil needed at such depths. All of our waterworks are at much shallower depths, this includes the Tweede Maasvlakte harbor extension mentioned in the video.

Is it a joke? A foolish project. It must be scrapped immediately. The location in question is entry to Ijmuiden, The North Sea Canal and the Port of Amsterdam. It is the 4th busiest port in Europe by total cargo tonnage The draining of Markermeer was politically dropped in 2003. It was planned that part of Markerwaard was to be used for a relief airport. The noise from turbofan jet engines has decreased continuously over the last 50 years and will continue to do so for the next 50 years. Schiphol is conveniently and centrally located close to the customers. Motorways, roads and railways are built close to and under Schiphol. Many companies within many industries are located in and around Schiphol. All the customers and all the employees have to commute much longer = negative economic and environmental social interest. The construction site itself outside the North Sea and the demolition and removal of the existing airport will cause a huge additional emission of CO2. Roads and railways must be built through national parks out by the North Sea. The wind farms that have been built out in the North Sea must be removed again, even if they have only been there for a few years. They have cost billions of € to build.
