The city of Reykjavík will provide winter services overnight, but heavy snowfall is expected in the capital area, with worsening driving conditions and limited transportation. The weather also affects garbage collection, and people are encouraged to shovel snow from bins to ensure that garbage collection can be done.
The police in the capital area are investigating a shooting that took place in Úlfarsárdalur valley in Reykjavík last night, but the police received a report at 4.54 am.
It is fundamental to urban planning, both when designing and redesigning the neighborhood, that residents can access services and commerce within the neighborhood. Such planning can help to create more sustainable neighborhoods, reduce traffic, improve quality of life, and reduce the problems facing many urban areas in modern times. This is what Brent Toderian, former planning manager of the Canadian city of Vancouver, and one of the members of Keldurland Development Committee, said. At least ten thousand residents are supposed to live in the area with another five thousand working in the area. However, Toderian says that this number should be the bare minimum and would like to see a much denser settlement.
