But on the other side there is a cliff!

● Children are not allowed to go on the fields

Lack of space! ● 2 cars up
● 1 cyclist up
● 1 car down

Traffic on the path, a problem since years:
● After meetings with director he sent e-mails:
● Priority for pedestrians and cyclists
● Drive to Ojo only in case of emergency
● Use car as little as possible on the path
● No cars between 9.00-9.30 and 13.30-14.00 h.
● But these rules are not respected by many25/06/2017 15

The ideal: Children walking and cycling safely and
undisturbed Courses have starting times, otherwise children can arrive
anytime after 9 am. Ilse, what time you arrive?…………

Course in Ojo (school)● A way to let the children speak and getting involved!
● Ojo: Lot of attention to sustainability (plastic, etc.), → Car-use is a blind-spot
● It is not about parents, but about the children that can enjoy the path and learn sustainable traffic behaviour
● Children walking and cycling to school: Fits with child-directed school

1. Observations● Most cars do not stop or even slow down, children run
away when a car approaches
● We made photos and commented on fast driving parents: Quite some angry reactions from drivers
● Ilse: ………….. (honking)
● A parent: “The problem is the bicycles, not the cars”

Conclusions - Discussion● Car-culture: Also children not used to walk
● Ilse, “How you notice it is a car-culture?”
● 850 m. considered too far for 4 or 5-year old
● Priority for pedestrians and cyclists is not understood
● Many drivers do not understand difficulty to walk and cycle on uneven terrain (they never walked the path)

Next steps● First of all: there has been a positive change
● 1. Communicate the new traffic signal (placed this summer holiday) and explain priority
● Cars to stop to allow bikes and pedestrians pass
● 2. Make a clear policy/guidelines for use of the path promoting cycling, walking and road safety
● Time window without cars on the path
● Idea: Carfree day
