Residential care centers in Belgium have initiated modernization and expansion projects. WZC De Bijster has begun preparatory works, including site excavation, for a new building intended to replace its current main structure, with a projected completion date by the end of 2029. Similarly, WZC Heilig Hart has announced plans to construct a new campus in Oudenaarde starting in January 2027, which will include assisted living homes and specialized facilities for residents with dementia.

In Zwalm, a new recycling park has officially opened on Borstekouterstraat. This facility serves as a base for the municipal technical service and incorporates sustainable water management systems. Additionally, local infrastructure efforts include the commencement of a mono-manure digester and green gas installation project in Wijnjewoude, aimed at achieving village energy neutrality by early 2028.
