They were there for about six days. Two planters in the Kapelstraat in Beek and Donk. Now they are gone again. The municipality assures temporary. The two bins will probably be replaced on Wednesday.
Last Wednesday the municipality of Laarbeek placed the two planters in the Kapelstraat. The bins, put down as a test, came at the insistence of local residents and the village council of Beek and Donk. They are intended to limit speed and, at the same time, to discourage covert traffic. Kapelstraat residents have been concerned about road safety for years. Their street is officially a 30-kilometer zone. But by no means, all drivers adhere to it. The road also attracts a lot of stealth traffic.
Now the containers have been removed by the municipality and are on the municipal yard. Reason: they must be weighted and are also provided with more reflective material. The bins are then put back as quickly as possible.
