Due to the increase in motorised traffic in the twentieth century, several houses in the old village centre of Aalten at one point stood \u2013 both literally and figuratively \u2013 ‘in the way’. On this page, we have gathered a number of these so-called ‘bottlenecks’. Do you know of any others? <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

A \u201cStumbling Block\u201d in Aalten, which is to disappear very shortly!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 203-year-old house and smithy of Mr Buesink<\/a> in Aalten, situated on the corner and entrance of the Peperstraat there, had long stood in the way of widening the busy Peperstraat, located right in the heart of the village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the last council meeting, it was decided, in agreement with the owner, to have this property demolished, whereby the owner will be given compensation of \u01922,500, on condition that the street at that point achieves a width of 13 metres and that his new property will have risen within 8 months.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Whilst it is highly commendable that this street, which is always so busy but so narrow at that spot, is to be significantly widened and that the new building will embellish the surrounding area and the square there, it is at the same time a pity, viewed from an antiquarian standpoint and from that of picturesque village beauty, that yet another of the oldest and most typical houses from the heart of the village is to disappear for the benefit of modern traffic. It should also be mentioned that until now, the Peperstraat was closed to all motor vehicles due to its narrowness! <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

A difficult traffic problem in Aalten<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The beautiful village of Aalten, built on hills by past generations, has several steeply sloping, rather narrow streets with sharp bends, as a result of which the village, as a traffic junction, often presents difficulties. In particular, the confluence of Landstraat, Kerkhofstraat<\/a> and Veemarktstraat can be designated as a “dangerous intersection”, where collisions and accidents are a near-daily occurrence and where, with the development of today’s fast-moving traffic, double the caution and alertness are required. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This problem has engaged the attention of the local authority for years and years, and the Vereeniging \u201ePlaatselijk Belang\u201d (Local Interest Association) and the K.N.A.C. (Royal Dutch Automobile Club) have also been active in this matter for many years, though without tangible result. The right solution seems hard to find, but given the large number of accidents, which for understandable reasons are increasing rather than decreasing, it really is high time that vigorous action is taken here by the authority concerned, before even more serious accidents than have occurred hitherto force them to look to locking the stable door. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Oosterkerkstraat<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\n

Aalten Council to judge on traffic obstacle<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Aalten council will convene for a meeting this coming Thursday afternoon at half past two. The agenda to be dealt with is by no means unimportant. For instance, a decision will have to be made on a proposal from the executive executive (College van B. en W.) regarding the purchase of the house on the corner of Oosterkerkstraat and Lichtenvoordsestraat<\/a>. This house is a major obstacle to traffic and a thorn in the side of all motorists who have the misfortune of having to go from Oosterkerkstraat to Lichtenvoordsestraat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lately, parking signs have even been erected, indicating that the last five metres of Oosterkerkstraat are a prohibited area for four-wheeled vehicles. Thus, one can now see almost daily that cars coming out of Oosterkerkstraat clandestinely drive across the forbidden section of the road to the Lichtenvoordsestraat. Usually, a fellow passenger is first asked to have a quick look to see if there happens to be a policeman nearby. It is absurd, people judge, that one has to drive out of the entire Oosterkerkstraat in reverse \u2013 as one cannot turn in this street \u2013 in order to reach the Lichtenvoordsestraat via a massive detour. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\"Bottleneck\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Mr M. Meijerman, the current owner of the house that is the cause of all the trouble, has declared his willingness to part with the property for \u01924,000, and the executive are eagerly seizing the opportunity. The council undoubtedly no less so. We do not know whether the executive consider it justifiable to demolish the house in the near future. On the one hand, the current housing shortage has a strong say in the matter, but on the other hand, the question is whether the house should remain standing until accidents happen, especially now that traffic is becoming heavier. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
