🚧 Work in progress 🚧 The Socrateslaan in Utrecht is undergoing a big metamorphosis: from grey, asphalted thoroughfare to a green, livable, and traffic-safe street, with wide sidewalks and two-way bicycle paths on both sides. Street by street, the city is becoming greener, safer, and more livable!
Photo collage with three images.

The top photo shows a screenshot from Google Maps of Socrateslaan before the redesign. Four lanes for cars and two bus lanes in the middle, a narrow divider, and then a service road running almost directly against the residential houses. Cars are parked here, but it also serves as a bicycle path.

The middle photo shows what the street looks like now, during the construction work. A wide verge has been created in the middle, which will serve as a catchment for excess rainwater and where two rows of young trees have already been planted. There is a single car lane on either side of the verge. It is also already visible that in the new situation, cars park along the main road, and no longer on the service road.

The bottom photo is an impression created by the Municipality of Utrecht of what the street will look like after the redesign and when the greenery is fully grown. The houses no longer border a service road, but a wide sidewalk followed by a bicycle path. Safe crossings have also been added between the two car lanes.

I have driven a car on that motorway, and I have been in a boat on the returned water. I know this location well, yet photos of the canal–motorway–canal transformation in Utrecht continue to amaze me!
Three photos of the same location in Utrecht, the Netherlands. As a canal in 1968, as a motorway in 1983 and as a canal again in 2026. The city constructed a road, regretted it and then reversed the decision.

In Utrecht, the city centre isn’t dominated by motor traffic - it’s shaped around people. You see families riding side-by-side, conversations happening in the street, cafés spilling outdoors. When cars are restricted, streets come alive: quieter, safer, more welcoming, and better for everyone.

Coenderstraat, Delft. A simple looking junction, but the more you look, the more you see the Dutch Sustainable Safety design approach in action. Everyone moves in their clear space on the main road, interactions are managed, and people have priority in the side street, Westerstraat. #FridayFun
A red two-way cycle track passes the end of a little side street with three story Dutch homes on both sides. The access to the side street from the main road is via a steep ramp which crosses the cycle track and  buff coloured footway. There are soke bikes parked against a sign post to the right of the access.

As Dutch cities continue to grow, space is being reallocated to walking, cycling and public transport. Across the Netherlands, the role of the private car is being reconsidered. New blog post and video.
bicycledutch.wordpress.com
When Space Runs Out: Rethinking the Role of the Car in Dutch Cities
Dutch cities are changing rapidly. One of the aims of this blog is to document that change, and there is plenty of work ahead. Much of what I record involves changes to streets: a before-and-after of a reconstructed street is relatively easy to capture in images. Shiny new cycling bridges can steal the show, and a new continuous-cycle route perhaps even more so.

My controversial take is that shitty instagramers and tiktokers have been pumping out slop for years before we had algorithms to create it for us. The current slop crisis is simply a symptom of that.

An Urban Arrow cargo bike has nearly the same physical footprint as a Smart car. While the car is marketed as "tiny," the bike is often labeled as "huge" by those used to traditional bicycles. This irony highlights how much space we waste on bloated, car-centric infrastructure.
