Ring A10 is an illustrated book about an orbital motorway, and its relationship with the city it serves and surrounds. As well as documenting the architectural history of the A10, and its changing place in the estimations of Amsterdammers, the book is also a celebration of the ring road's colourfulness and ambience, and the countless human stories associated with it. A number of essays cover traffic, environmental issues, ecology, city life and urban expansion, while 8 planned walks follow the route of the motorway, suggesting its interactive possibilities and exploring the richness of its environs. Visions for the future of the A10 are also offered, as well as a three-part photographic essay by David de Jong.
