The GPS Glitch is an architectural project that has evolved into an urban phenomenon. The main idea behind it was to think years ahead and gradually free the street, thus later on, the city of cars, by creating alternative car parking and focusing on soft mobility, such as biking. A redesigned bike path led the way for three planned zones: the parking building in the north, the renovated old train station, a playground with a connection to the existing bike path and a housing structure by which the bike path continues on to the city, leading to the main train station. The parking building is designed in place of an old parking area with poorly planned out parking spaces, it is a structure that has future transformation in mind (possible to change into ex. office spaces) with a freely planned roof for single-family housing.
