Switzerland seems to be very open when it comes to sex, judging by this billboard at a train station. To keep prostitution from the streets, the Zurich municipal authorities have devised a plan to limit prostitutes to three zones, where booths will be set up for the prostitutes and their customers to erm *cough* do business. The city council are expecting these to be implemented and come into law on Jan. 1, 2012.
The council also mentioned that they were looking into ways to advise and inform the compliant prostitutes by direct communication, with new regulations to create a form of licenses required to 'prostitute' peacefully, if that is even a transitive verb!
The construction of 10 booths are planned in Altstetten as a kind of trial run, more will be built if it is successful. The newly established Altstetten prostitution zone will be monitored and maintained by social services, plans which are already on their way for the design and creation of the sex boxes are signaled to be ready for the spring of 2012.
