Auto-translated to English by AIWesterpark shares some central facilities with the Tuinzigt neighbourhood. We try to tackle separate initiatives such as a natural playground, a safe crossing at Westerparklaan, parking problems and a liveable safe environment together (better governance, community centre De Nieuwe Meidoorn). Together with government agencies we will have to get this job done. Only with an active approach from the neighbourhood residents can we improve this.
