Safety walk on March 25 for anyone feeling unsafe in public spaces
On March 25, the municipality of Duiven will organize a safety walk. During this evening, we will cycle together through locations where residents sometimes feel less safe. The aim is to gather experiences to better understand what is happening and how we might improve these locations. The walk will take place from 7:30 PM to 9:30 PM, starting and ending at the Town Hall.
Why a safety walk?
The recent safety survey yielded over 300 responses from residents of both Duiven and Westervoort. The feedback indicates that there are several locations where people feel less safe. A selection of these locations forms the basis for the route of the safety walk. During the walk, we will visit these spots by bike.
We would like to hear where and why people feel unsafe. The experiences we gather will help us better understand the situation and explore possible improvements. Not everything can be addressed immediately, but we take all signals seriously.
Route and starting point
We will visit the selected locations by bike, together with residents, colleagues from various municipal teams, and the neighborhood police officer. We will gather at the Town Hall at 7:30 PM and conclude there at 9:30 PM as well.
