A seminar paper on night-time mobility that turned into a small atlas. I rode every night bus route in Utrecht at least twice between January and March 2025, noting where people got on and off, how full the bus was and what time the last passenger left. The atlas has one spread per route and a closing map that overlays all of them on the daytime network, which shows how much of the west of the city has no service after one in the morning. Written for the Mobility and Society seminar; the paper received the highest mark in the group, and the maps were shown at the department's student evening in May.
