Lovely project. Does anyone know any other examples where rivers were restored where once a car sewer stood?

Utrecht in the Netherlands had a moat that they turned into a motorway, and then back into a canal a few years ago

What a nice change. The only thing missing is more bike lanes. The raised car sewer is only for pedestrians, but a bike lanes would've been a great addition.

@notjustbikes@notjustbikes.com What a coincidence to be sponsored by 80.000 hours. I was looking for a new job with positive impact on the world!

P.S cool that you're on the fediverse! Will you be uploading videos here too?
