Starting in spring 2027, the Vilvoorde viaduct towards Zaventem will reduce its number of lanes from three to two. This change is part of a complex renovation that will last for several years.

According to the mobility organization Touring, traffic will experience significant disruption, particularly during peak hours. One of the two remaining lanes will also be narrowed, which may further aggravate the traffic situation.

The situation is expected to persist until spring 2031. This lengthy timeframe is likely to have a continuous impact on traffic, which will need to be closely monitored.

Drivers traveling on the Brussels Ring should prepare for these changes and the accompanying traffic issues.
