A serious accident occurred on the E411 (A4) linking Luxembourg and Namur near Conneux BK 83.0, the roadway was closed in both directions for a long time. It is a refrigerated truck that caught fire after an accident. Unfortunately, one death is to be deplored.

At 8:30 p.m., the lanes towards Luxembourg were freed. Around 9.15 p.m., traffic was also restored to Brussels.

The cleaning of the roadway started shortly after 8:00 p.m., the truck was loaded onto a platform and then evacuated. “ It was necessary to circumscribe the fire, then evacuate the 10,000 liters of milk in tetrapacks contained in the truck before straightening it and evacuating it. The truck was able to be straightened around 7 p.m. explain Héloïse Winandy, Communications Director at SOFICO. The latter told us that it was very localized and superficial damage to the roadway. We are talking about small degradations on approximately 6 square meters which will not immediately prevent traffic. The teams also made some small repairs with cold tarmac.
