Noticing that it’s been #ChelseaFlowerShow2026 and near home at #Tynemouth (UK) for #WildFlowerShow for #WildflowerHour #NoMowMay where areas once lawns appear to now bring wildness closer to people and nature 🐝

We’ve objected to plans for 7 houses west of Furrow Grove, Stannington (26/01393/FUL), citing overdevelopment, poor access and a layout that doesn’t respect the area’s spacious character. We’re calling for refusal and for higher-quality development that truly fits its surroundings.

Zwolle now has a park above the railway. The new Passerelle is a 130-metre wooden bridge that links the city centre with the station area. It is made as a connection that also allows for meeting and enjoying the view, with greenery, benches and places to pause. Read more (Dutch): buff.ly/XCdLxem

Rush hour traffic in Utrecht. Sound on 🔊 if you want to experience that rush hour IS possible without the constant, deafening noise of cars overpowering people talking.

Three years ago, Utrecht completed the transformation of the Sint Josephlaan and turned an unattractive, unlivable car sewer into a green city boulevard. It shows that even Dutch cities were not always like they are today and have often come a long way in becoming better versions of themselves.
Before photo of Sint Josephlaan in Utrecht. The photo shows a four-lane car sewage straight through a residential area. A narrow sidewalk and narrow cycle path on both sides, but there is no greenery at all.Photo of the Sint Josephlaan after the transformation. The photo shows the new situation, in which the number of lanes has been halved and a lot of space has been added for greenery. Both on the sides and between the lanes.Photo of the Sint Josephlaan after the transformation.
