As the fortifications' condition was very poor, the municipality of 's-Hertogenbosch had the development plan Fortified ’s-Hertogenbosch drawn up for the fortifications in 1998. This gives pride of place to the future importance of the town’s fortifications.

• Fortified ‘s-Hertogenbosch development plan, with detailed sub-plans;
  From water gate to water gate for the southern side of the town and
  The Western Ramparts Return for the western side of town.
•  Projects that have been or will be carried out in the framework of the fortifications
• The execution of the restoration projects is extremely expensive. Cooperation in (European) subsidised projects and sponsors enable the execution of projects.
• Archaeology and Fortifications
  Archaeology plays an important role in the planning of the development of the fortifications.
