1. Yes, far from the playing children you do not obstruct traffic here
2. No, on a woonerf you park only on your own property or in a P bay
3. Yes, as long as you keep the footpath clear, because pedestrians walk there

You are planning the layout of a new holiday park near Zundert and must choose between a woonerf design and a 30 km/h zone for the internal road network, where children often roam freely among parked cars. Which design best matches the book rules for an area with many pedestrians on the roadway itself?

1. Woonerf — it is specifically designed for areas where pedestrians may walk on the roadway, with the lowest permitted speed (15 km/h)
2. 30 km/h zone — that is meant for mixed traffic and school areas, so also for children roaming freely among parked cars
