Major traffic jams expected Friday in Brussels

From 10 a.m. and throughout the day, the Reyers tunnel towards the center will be closed, as well as the Cinquantenaire tunnel towards Arts-Lois, the Annie Cordy tunnel coming from Koekelberg towards Midi, the avenue du Port and the small belt Brussels on the surface.

The small belt of Brussels will probably be inaccessible to car traffic, as will the Arts-Loi crossroads. Rue de la Loi and the European district could also experience heavy traffic disruptions, which could persist until late afternoon, the police said.

The participants in the event will travel in the morning via the Chaussée de Gand, the Chaussée de Ninove, the Chaussée de Louvain and the Chaussée de Vilvorde. “The ambition is to reach the capital with a thousand tractors”, announced last week the president of the ABS (Algemeen Boerensyndicaat, the general union of farmers, editor’s note), Hendrik Vandamme, at the initiative of the demonstration .

The police advise against traveling to the capital by car and recommend using public transport, favoring the metro and the train.
