For those who want to go on foot, the distances to most destinations are manageable.
"Ghent is not very big. For those who want to go on foot, the distances to most destinations are good. But time says more than distance. The Metrominuto map therefore gives an idea of the walking time between two destinations. Van De Krook to the Kouter, for example, is only a seven minute walk, seven minutes to enjoy all the beauty in our city.
The RapperTeVoet plan is a realization within the pedestrian plan of the City of Ghent. That puts forward 16 actions to make Ghent a more walkable city. A city that focuses on active forms of mobility creates space in the city.
This space can be used to contribute to various policy tasks such as health, climate adaptation, densification, cleaner air, infiltration, combi-modality and urban quality. A city tailored to the pedestrian creates more opportunities to realize these themes and by focusing on these themes you contribute to a walkable city.
