From now on zone 30 in all Heuvelland village centres

“This is a good thing for road safety as well as for the quality of life in the village centers and residential areas,” says alderman Dirk Baekelandt. “With the introduction of zone 30, we are already making the living environment a lot safer. The braking distance at a speed of 30 per hour is less than half that when you drive at 50. In addition, the risk of serious injury or death in a crash also decreases. low-speed collision.”

There are also fewer emissions, says the municipality, and less noise from traffic.
