They actually introduced a shared space at Amsterdam Central Station about 1-2 years ago that I cross daily. The shared space is right next to the incredibly busy ferries and perpendicular to what used to be a bicycle lane. It's now one big square shared by bicycles, pedestrians and scooters.
It does work incredibly well and there are rarely any accidents. The downside however is that it's quite a struggle to cross. It makes me dread to leave the ferry and enter the warzone once again every morning. I understand that it is designed to make me uncomfortable, but it is taken to such an extend that I don't even really want to walk there.
