🚧 (1) City adds temporary barriers
🚗 (2) If they lead to problems, they are removed

Is er in jouw straat alleen ruimte voor verkeer, en niet voor ontmoeten, spelende kinderen of groen? Of is dit bij jou juist uitstekend geregeld?

The space between our buildings can be anything we want, need or desire. If we would design it from scratch, how likely is it that we would give it all away to parked cars?

While playing outside yesterday, a adult asked my children to go play somewhere else, because they were playing close to her parked car.
