The tragic accident at the Vierhuizen level crossing in Buggenhout, East Flanders, claimed four lives last Tuesday. Driver Noureddine (49), supervisor Anke (27) and students Mohamed (15) and Arthur (12) were killed when their school bus was hit by a train. The drama resonates deeply throughout the country. In the meantime, De Lijn is considering an alternative route for the school bus, so that students no longer have to cross the level crossing in question. Follow all updates in our live blog.
