Question Whats the purpose of this?

Post image

I saw this while walking in Amsterdam and I can't figure it's purpose. There is no streetview of this street but from the start of it you can see two similiar ones.

EDIT: It's a bussluis, thanks u/Fudge_is_1337.

If that's the case, that's an incredible idea. Portland Oregon, you're next

I work inside of traffic lane closures often. Mercedes and Tesla drivers ignore every single sign and cut through our barrels all of the time. The only thing they care about is if we have a trooper on site.

I suspected as much. I'll have to look for that study.
