The municipality of Amstelveen is taking several measures to counteract extreme crowds in the City Center. The reason is the large group of shoppers from last weekend during Black Friday. ‘As a result, it was also busy in the Amstelveen city center and people could not keep enough distance from each other.’

The municipal council will therefore introduce pedestrian routes in the center and a door policy will be introduced for the shops. In addition, extra security guards and hostesses are deployed to supervise if customers do not comply with the corona measures. In addition, enforcers and police will also supervise the Stadshart.
The municipality is also calling on residents to do their shopping on Thursdays and Fridays as much as possible and to avoid the crowds on weekends and just before the holidays. Amstelveners are also asked to visit the Stadshart in the morning and not to shop with more than one person.
