The Walkers car meets young people in Tuusula 

The Walkers car will arrive in Tuusula on 10 April, following in the tyre tracks of its big sister, the Walkers bus. The project complements the municipality’s mobile youth work, in which youth workers meet young people wherever they happen to be. During the scheme, which runs until the end of the year, young people can also request the car to come to them, even for longer journeys.

In a child-friendly municipality, children’s voices are heard even before construction begins – the traffic park is being designed based on children’s wishes 

Tuusula’s new traffic park is being built based on the children’s own wishes. In workshops held in March, children had the chance to design the future park’s features using Lego, drawing and brainstorming. The results provide designers with valuable insight into what kind of environment best serves children.
