There is a study: "...courtesy of our good friends in Japan, children who live closer to train stations have, in their words, 'better hyperactivity outcomes' and less issues with inattention. While the negative impact of ambient noise on mental health is known, this is an interesting outcome, and shows that this whole area of impacting on mental health is extremely complex."

@DrTCombs That must be worldwide problem. I hate when random petrolheads explain to pedestrians and bicyclers that they are bitching too much and are too lazy to just go around.

@rob_telraam Well, I never kiss my sister-in-law when dropping her off at K+R zone in Prague. 😅

@rob_telraam That must be continental standard. We have P+R (Park and Ride) and K+R (Kiss and Ride) in Czechia as well. Those abbreviations are even official traffic signs.

@james_gleave2 Czechia literally has snow each winter.Though road maintenance as well as rail network manager get surprised each year about the winter coming.This year,network manager got even more creative.Due to #energycrisis it turned off electric switch heating so the switches on tracks got frozen and trains could not run.Also personel is non existent to clean the switches because they were laid off after the heating was installed.So the experience sometimes doesn’t matter.
