Brutkey

A finished section of the 'printed' brick surface - a long stretch of perfectly laid bricks. On both sides: small businesses and cafes and cyclists and pedestrians on the pavement alongside. Same general description from first photo now follows, so skip if already heard: Vestergade, mid-city Aarhus, Denmark. A lovely narrow old street that is, after a few years' trial, being turned permanently into a Quiet Street - cars may drive here, but only slowly, and bikes and pedestrians have priority. The council is planting trees, widening the pavement café and seating spaces, and laying a nice new chessboard-like brick surface. The surface is designed to slow down bikes too.  It is the first place in Denmark that is being paved with a Dan Jord RoadPrinter - a Dutch brick paver that rolls out complete stretches of road from a machine, as if you are winding a continuous sheet of paper out from a huge roll of paper. Photo taken with permission - I have turned into one of those Auld Lads who stand there, hands behind my back, watching them at work, fascinated by the process, interrupting them with questions including 'may I take some photos?
