Papendorp, a neighborhood in Utrecht's Leidsche Rijn area, is located in the Netherlands. Wissing Stdebouw created the neighborhood's urban plan, which was recognized with the Rietveldprijs award in 2009. The neighborhood is bordered to the north by the Leidse Rijn, east by the Amsterdam-Rijn Canal, south by the A12, southwest at the Oudenrijn junction, and west with the A2.
Papendorp, the easternmost industrial area of a connected series of three areas, is located at the easternmost point. Directly across from the A2 lies the industrial area Strijkviertel, which is yet to be developed. To the west, the Oudenrijn Industrial Area in De Meern is fully developed, with a wide range of sectors represented, including trade, transport and industry. Papendorp, on the other hand, is dominated by office buildings. All three industrial zones are located very close to the A2 and A12 freeways.
The Prins Claus Bridge, over the Amsterdam-Rijn Canal, is the shortest route between Papendorp on one side and Kanaleneiland in the other. Kanaleneiland has a direct link to Utrecht Central Station. This bridge's free bus lane is a vital link between Utrecht city and the southwest part of Utrecht province. It connects cities like Vianen and Leerdam with IJsselstein and Schoonhoven and Oudewater and Woerden. This bus connection is now even faster since 2019 thanks to the completion and installation of underpasses under two busy roundabouts at Kanaleneiland.
A bridge that crosses the A2 in Papendorp's northern section connects it to De Meern, and other nearby towns. This bridge is also the route of the free bus from Utrecht towards De Meern, which passes through Strijkviertel (industrial area) and Oudenrijn. The bus journey from Utrecht Central Station bus station to De Meern bus stop is 6 km and takes 12 minutes. Some streets in the Papendorp Industrial Area are named after famous mapmakers, such as Mercator and Orelius.
