Brussels (Brussels Morning) – From July 15,2024 to August 2024 the Delta Tunnel will be closed for asbestos removal and the Beaulieu Bridge will be closed for road surface maintenance.
From July 15 to the end of August the Delta Tunnel will be completely closed because they need to remove asbestos. During this time cars will have to use a different way through Waversesteenweg, Vorstlaan and Invalidenlaan. The Beaulieu Bridge above the E411 and Delta Tunnel will be closed until the end of summer for road surface maintenance by the mobility service. Make sure to plan ahead for these detours and roadworks during this time to avoid traffic jams and have a smooth trip.
What Summer Roadworks and Tunnel Maintenance Are Planned in the City?
Starting from July 1 the Tervuren Tunnel will undergo maintenance. However, the tunnel will not be completely closed. Instead the tunnel shaft heading towards the city center will be closed and traffic in both directions will be rerouted through the tunnel shaft leading towards the suburbs. This arrangement will continue until August 5. From that date the tunnel shaft towards the city center will reopen and the tunnel shaft towards the suburbs will then close for maintenance. This means that traffic in both directions will use the tunnel shaft heading towards the city center from August 5 onwards. It has been said that motorists should be prepared for potential delays and changes in traffic patterns due to these maintenance works and plan their routes accordingly to minimize disruptions
