My car is my castle
In the 1960s, some strange people got the
glorious idea to build some motorways. Oh yes, and one part of the A47
was really built, right through the nicest part of the city, which had
survived the war without damage. It began in the mid-70s with the demolition
of several nice mansions in the western city. The motorway started in
the outskirts and ended—what did you expect? Right. In the city
centre. How smart. A long and expensive tunnel was built twenty years
later to get the traffic out of there, it is the first part of a second
motorway, the A35,
which is to be built in the future...
