Streetfilms has always tried to work daylighting into everything I can. It just makes sense to not have cars parked all the way up to crosswalks (or in some cases right up until the intersection!). By eliminating cars being parked from the first 10 to 15 feet (in some places they use 20!) you create a safer environment for drivers to not only see peds & bicyclists but OTHER drivers.

At the Ghent 2024 Velo-city event, Streetfilms went along on a technical visit "Cycling Through School Areas" to see some of the road treatments the city does for kids and families to help get them to schools in a safe environment. Here is a little of that tour to inspire your city to do the same!

Come watch the riders, sound, sites, festive atmosphere & creative fun that was the annual Velo-city bike ride, this year in Ghent!

Learn exactly what daylighting is, why it’s so great for drivers and pedestrians, and how to get more of it in your neighborhood with this new Streetfilm.

My family and I visited The Netherlands for the first time and met up with Mark Wagenbuur (Bicycle Dutch on YouTube) in Utrecht. He gave us a fantastic tour of the train station area, showing off bike improvements, open spaces, and even took us to the incredible Railway Museum—one of the best in the world.
