Accessibility:
During the APIH Cafédrive, road works are being carried out as part of Operation Ring South. These works result in large sections of the southern ring road of Groningen being closed, leading to diversions and additional travel time. For more information about Operation Ring South, visit www.operatieringzuid.nl. The Groningen Traffic Bureau advises travelers, if possible, to use public transportation to travel to (the city center of) Groningen. Below you will find some general tips on how to reach Weeva.
Navigation: Google Maps follows the rapidly changing situation
The traffic situation in the south of Groningen changes rapidly. Most navigation software in cars has not been updated recently enough to keep up with this speed of change. Only Google Maps updates the changing situation in time. So use Google Maps to navigate in Groningen.
INFO for train and bus passengers :
From Groningen station, walk in the direction of the Groningen Museum. Cross the coloured bridge and walk straight on until you reach Gedempte Zuiderdiep. On your right you will see Subway (a restaurant). Turn right and walk down Gedempte Zuiderdiep. At the very end, next to the Albert Heijn, you will find Restaurant Weeva. For public transportation information, please visit www.9292.nl.
INFO for motorists :
Due to the roadworks, we strongly advise you to anticipate extra time for travelling and therefore plan to leave early. If you prefer not to drive into the city centre due to the traffic situation, you can use the Park and Ride (P+R) facilities located around the city. There are P+R facilities in Hoogkerk, Haren, Kardinge, Reitdiep and Meerstad. Regular buses run from these P+R facilities to the centre of Groningen. The Zuiderdiep bus stop is on the street where Weeva is located. For more information about the P+R facilities, please visit the website of the municipality of Groningen.
If you prefer to park closer, the nearest car park is Q-Park Rademarkt. It is located at Rademarkt 27 in Groningen. Due to changing traffic conditions, we recommend that you use Google Maps to plan your route to the car park (in advance).
The pedestrian entrance and exit is in the Albert Heijn building. When you leave the building, turn right into Gedempte Zuiderdiep. You will pass the Albert Heijn and on your right you will see Restaurant Weeva, where you can pick up your running ticket. If you are using the Albert Heijn exit itself, turn right. Weeva is about 30 metres away.
If you have any questions, we are available at info@apihcafedrive.nl. On our website www.apihcafedrive.nl you will find further contact information for urgent questions.
If you cancel after May 14, there will be no refund of the registration fee.
Kind regards and until May 18,
The ACDC (Mark, Gerben, Sjaak, Reinder, Matthijs, Henk en Ellen)
