The work on the N13 in the center of Nijlen, commissioned by Pidpa, is proceeding ahead of schedule. As a result, the contractor can move towards Laureys Gewatstraat on Wednesday, August 12, which is one day earlier than previously planned.

According to reports, the change in the traffic situation is a result of the progress of the construction work. This has a significant impact on local traffic flows.

Additionally, there is news about new EU packaging regulations that come into effect on Wednesday. These rules are intended to reduce packaging waste and promote sustainable material usage.

However, some stakeholders have expressed concerns about the practical implementation of these regulations, particularly small online retailers who fear that the registration requirement in each EU country will complicate their business.
