Regional infrastructure developments in Benelux

Overview

Local authorities in the Netherlands and Belgium are implementing various infrastructure projects to improve regional connectivity, accessibility, and safety.

In the Netherlands, Helmond has approved paving the Goorsebaan to strengthen the cycling connection between Helmond and Eindhoven, with plans to mitigate ecological impacts on the Goorloop valley. In Belgium, Tongeren-Borgloon is paving the Oude Kolmont with cobblestones to attract cycling tourists.

Further developments in Belgium include Sint-Niklaas, where works will begin to widen access roads near the Aquafin sewage treatment plant to separate heavy traffic from cyclists, and Mol, where a 3.6 million euro project is underway to extend a railway station underpass and upgrade platform facilities to improve passenger accessibility.
