For many people, the shock is that the level crossing will disappear forever after the works, with even more traffic in and around Rumbeke.
“We are afraid that this will cause a lot of mobility problems in the neighborhood. Both for local residents and passers -by, but also all traders in the neighborhood, who depend on passage. If they no longer send the traffic over this level crossing, the People are obliged to take another from the Mandellaan, where there are also a lot of problems, certainly at the busy moments, “says fuel trader Stijn Vandepitte.
