amsterdam dream city




I went on a business trip to Amsterdam this week ......this really is the dream city......take away the sleaze, and this has got to be a "blue print" for the ideal green city . Everybody rides a bike very few cars, and a station right in the middle of town.

Integrated transport system, trains every 10 Min's from the airport....this could be the blueprint for Crewe ?????

Tram systems, canal's, railway station, foot paths, cycle lanes, why do we have no imagination?
Train fares are cheap ...3 Euros from the airport and then everything is in walking distance.We don't want a copy but Manchester airport could be Schipol and Amsterdam railway station, crewe station , and then bike city, crewe! it is a bit bigger than crewe amsterdam- Population: 740,000.
