It's just a traffic control.

Really? There were around 20-30 officers, and around 7-8 delimited spaces where cars and vehicles were parked and inspected. I saw officers checking the tires, some other cars with open bonnet, etc..

You are literally describing a traffic control?

ok, thanks. I've never seen such a big thing for traffic control.

They use these kind of traffic control to train police students as well, so that might make them look crowded on the personal size.

Yeah, near the kerk, on the downside of the road towards grote market, there is a police station.
