1. Green heart of the Randstad metropolis threatened by a large amount sprawl. De Randstad is slowly losing sight on value of the landscape. 2. National policy on landscape is a layerd system. It shows a great care for landscape, although most of this policy is now abandoned 3. Green hart vs. Blue hart The planning area is situated where the two meet 4. Connection between East Atlantic Flyway and Green Spine (ecological valued landscapes of lower peatlands) 5. Location and introduction of circulair routes 'loops'. Not one connection, but the coherence of routes determines the quality and accesibility of the hinterland 6. Shipping highway and Park Nieuwe Diep: New park route through the core of the Park Nieuwe Diep: The slow parklandscapes of the city makes a nice contrast with the fast shipping channel.
