FLEXIBLE ENOUGH?
Housing for all
Varied options for families with children
Housing developments in new areas The densification strategy in Bergen has failed. Folkets Parti believes that the people of Bergen should have the possibility to establish a home where they prefer and not be forced to live in apartment buildings along the light rail line. Making new areas of land available for housing developments in the city outskirts will provide more diverse housing options and help keep housing prices affordable for most people. Housing development should not depend on existing public transport, but what people want in terms of good housing and quality of life. Public transport options must be developed according to need in order to reduce the need for driving.

Neighbourhoods and local communities are important for everyone. That is why Folkets Parti wants residential environments with close proximity to everyday essentials: shops, schools, kindergartens, sports and recreational facilities. This will result in more environmentally friendly urban development. We believe that municipal district plans should entail the increased involvement of residents in the preparation of new development plans. The municipality has special responsibility for ensuring a varied choice of new housing options that meet the needs of families with children – both indoors and outdoors.
