Critiques on the Cut
Some critical notes on the pilot "cut" Weesperstraat
In this collection, the editors of openresearch.amsterdam collect a number of critical notes on the pilot "cut" Weesperstraat.
The 'Knip Weesperstraat' is a controversial experiment in which car traffic is temporarily 'cut up' to create space for cyclists and pedestrians. The temporary closure of one of the major traffic arteries in the city caused a lot of unrest. Several emergency debates were requested, emergency services were inconvenienced and residents of Kattenburg organized a noise protest.
