Vote for your favorite design for the pumptrack
In 2026, a pumptrack will be constructed in the municipality of Bunschoten along Rengersweg. On March 10, two open-house sessions were held for residents and users. Using the information gathered during these sessions, two designs for the pumptrack have been created. Now it’s your turn to choose which one you prefer!
You can view the designs below and cast your vote for your favorite. We especially encourage children to vote (with their parents/guardians) for their preferred design. Voting is open until Wednesday, April 8, 2026.
Design 1
This pumptrack is suitable for all roller and wheeled sports at every skill level. Design 1 focuses on speed, long straight sections, and a series of bumps in quick succession. For an extra challenge, there is a separate route with jumps where you can practice your tricks. Looking for a challenge? Then this design is for you!
To integrate the pumptrack into the public space, minor adjustments will be made at the entrance. The current footpath to the sports field will be rerouted and incorporated into the pumptrack. Due to the construction of the pumptrack, there will no longer be space for the small soccer field or the bench with the canopy.
Design 2
This pumptrack is suitable for all roller and wheeled sports at every skill level. Design 2 has a more compact layout and is more technical, featuring long curves and short straight sections. This pumptrack has a single route for everyone and does not include a separate route for jumps. Ideal for those who enjoy long curves and short straight sections!
