In April the ceilings of the S414 were blasted by firm Huisman B.V. After this the ceiling could be painted. This makes the rusty ceilings neatly white.

In the war, the Germans had placed a generator in the fire control post to generate electricity if the power from the Noordwijk electricity grid failed. In March, the aggregate was placed in the fire control post S414.
The sleeping quarters on the ground floor of the fire control post are now furnished.
The audit center of the fire control post is further organized.
Preparatory work was also carried out to place the generator in the original room of the fire control post.
A metal door has been placed in the hallway from the fire control post.
Attention has been paid to the design of the fire control post. For example, two gas filter installations have been installed.
In 2010, the complex was connected to the electricity grid in the dunes.
The fire control post was further refurbished by installing new doors and re-applying the original colors to the walls.
In 2008, helmet grass was planted at the exhibition bunker after the blocks had been fitted with tank barriers.
Furthermore, the ‘old’ fire control post was refitted and the corridors to the ‘old’ control post were strengthened.
Lighting was installed in the lower floor of the fire control post S414.
In the winter months while the corridors are closed for the wintering of the bats, the fire control post (S414) has been refurbished.
In April a number of meters of narrow-gauge railway, made available by the Stoomtrein Valkenburgse Meer foundation, was installed at the fire control post in the corridor.
In 2006, access from the cycle path to the entrance to the bunkers in the dunes was completed.
In 2005, an entrance to the tunnel system was built and a door was placed in it. The volunteers have continued to remove sand. The fire control post S414 and the adjacent ‘old’ fire control post are made free of sand. This ‘old’ fire control post was in use before the large S414 fire control post was put into use in 1943.
