Dordrecht – Dubbeldam (Groenekruislaan)

The Groenekruislaan is a street in the neighbourhood of Dubbeldam which lies next to part of Dordrecht’s City Park (Dordwijkzone), the area is not well connected to surrounding nature.

• High density of houses and limited green or blue space
• Poor connections to nearby nature
• High risk of flooding during heavy rain
• High heat stress due to limited shade

• Build better connections between natural areas, parks and residential zones
• Design homes and gardens that support local nature
• Monitor local plant and animal species and research how to better support habitats

Implementing nature-inclusive design in Dubbeldam creates greener, more livable neighbourhoods. This will boost biodiversity, help residents feel more connected to local nature, while reducing risk of heat stress and flooding.
