As a Dutchy I am a bit sceptic about this, I mean the effort of the city is good so is their intention but it's also a bit weird this designation comes from a foreigner who talks about breda like an American tourist does about many people one bicycles here:

“I absolutely loved exploring Breda and learning about all the things they are doing to make their city greener, healthier and wilder – from restoring a river through the middle of the city to innovative community food growing programmes, tiny forests set up by schools, wildlife-friendly gardens and public art,” says Daniel Raven-Ellison, founder of the National Park City Foundation.

I mean at least half of those things are plans that are not finished yet. But maybe my Dutch ass is spoiled and I should not complain because breda is a great ~~city~~ town to live in I guess.

Imagine if there was an uninterrupted net of wildlife passages over the city, like the edges of a hex grid or something. So all infrastructure needs to go underneath
