I think this is in the Netherlands and the pink asphalt on the right is a bike path.

So maybe to prevent people from cutting across the sidewalk from the bike path? No idea.

Edit: A bike parking is just visible at the top of the picture, so Netherlands intensifies.

This is correct. In the left there is also a smooth strip wide enough for use by wheelchair or similar.

Ah! I see. That makes sense.

And being childless, I don't mind the possible hindrance for strollers either. :)

The sidewalk more on the left doesn't have the holes. So I think bikes were taking shortcuts across the sidewalk and this was the councils way of fixing that. People can walk on the left without bikes going on the sidewalk.
