Abstract
The different countries have the same problems and solutions. Traffic and transport must not be separated from the other components of urban planning. In the Netherlands, bicycles are used lesss frequently and cars cover shorter distances per year. Cars need to be parked in a higher density. There must be areas of traffic restraint with motor traffic on surrounding roads. Traffic rules are increasingly broken. Public transport suffers great shortages. The Dutch government is trying to reduce mobility and promote the bicycle and public transport.
