Berenkuil (traffic)

Other examples

• In Eindhoven, the Berenkuil has become an official free zone for graffiti and has been the site of graffiti festivals. In 2011, a new roundabout for cyclists shaped as a kind of “inverted berenkuil”, named Hovenring, has been constructed between Eindhoven and Veldhoven in the Netherlands.
• Other well-known berenkuil circles in the Netherlands include the Airborneplein in Arnhem, a traffic circle in the access road to the Passewaaij neighborhood in Tiel, a traffic circle in the center of Rijssen on the crossing of the N347 and the N350, and the Lammenschansplein, a traffic circle in Leiden.
• In Brussels, the Verboekhovenplein is commonly called Berenkuil. However, although it has a lowered central area, it is used for a train line rather than for bicycle paths.
• A traffic circle of similar design also exists in southern Tallinn, Estonia, at the intersection of Tehnika and Veerenni.
