Brand new housing estate at Kloosterveen near Assen. This shows the excellent cycle path alongside homes. Cars are permitted to park between trees. There is a special mesh which protects the greenery. Also, even though these are smaller terraced houses, each house has a driveway (or at least the possibility of having one), so at least 2, sometimes 3 or more, cars can be parked by each house without being either on the road, the pavement or in the way of cyclists on the cyclepath.

View the video to see how the driver gives way at the junction between road and cycle path.

This cycle path is 3 metres wide.
