Dutch Railway Station Installs Slide For Busy Passengers


Dutch train passengers running late to their appointments have a quicker option for getting across Overvecht Station in the city of Utrecht - and that option isn't a new flight of stairs or an elevator.

Design firm HIK Ontwerpers recently installed a slide in the newly renovated station to add a little fun to the everyday lives of commuters. Officially called a 'transfer accelerator,' the slide was installed in this underutilized area as part of HIK Ontwerpers ongoing urban installations series.
