We were telling you about it yesterday: it will be hot in the next few days, and many people will be heading for the coast to take advantage of the last days of vacation before the start of the school year. But be careful if you go to Knokke! Temperatures exceeding 28°C, the “heat plan” is activated within the municipality.

The local police will therefore deploy more police this weekend. “We also asked for the support of the federal police,” explains the local police to our colleagues from NB and HLN. The police will be particularly attentive at several levels, in particular at the level of the parking lot.

Knokke, for example, also prohibits walking around bare-chested in the city center. “Those who do risk a fine, as do those who make too much noise,” police warn.

If the residents know all its rules, this is not the case of the occasional public of the municipality. Large electronic panels have been installed in various places, indicates HLN this Friday.

And to say the least, they are very clear: anyone who walks around in the city center bare-chested or in a bikini, or who is the source of noise pollution, will be obliged to pay a fine… of 350 euros. You have been warned!
