UTRECHT: De Filmende Fietser shows me a brand new car-free/car-lite neighborhood (Part Two)

In this episode, I reconnect for Part Two of my ride-along video and on-bike interview with Geert van der Wilt, aka ‪@defilmendefietser‬, where we'll check out several street transformations (recent and forthcoming) that he's monitoring, as well as a couple of impressive car-lite, nearly car-free neighborhoods being developed.

Background:
Hi Everyone! My name is John Simmerman, and I’m a health promotion and public health professional with over 30 years of experience. Over the years, my area of concentration has evolved into a specialization in how the built environment influences human behavior related to active living and especially active mobility.
Since 2010, I've been exploring, documenting, and profiling established, emerging, and aspiring Active Towns wherever they might be while striving to produce high-quality multimedia content to help inspire the creation of more safe and inviting, environments that promote a "Culture of Activity" for "All Ages & Abilities."
The Active Towns Channel features my original video content and reflections, including a selection of podcast episodes and short films profiling the positive and inspiring efforts happening around the world as I am able to experience and document them.
Thanks once again for tuning in! I hope you find this content helpful and insightful.
