Rijkswaterstaat advises road users who have to go to Belgium to postpone their trip if possible. Several border crossings with the Netherlands were closed on Friday morning due to blockades by protesting farmers.
There are possibilities to come to Belgium, a spokesperson for Rijkswaterstaat indicates. “But we don’t know how quickly the situation can change.”
Several border crossings with the Netherlands were also blocked by Belgian farmers on Friday morning. For example, there are blockages on the A4 between Bergen op Zoom and Antwerp, the A16 between Breda and Antwerp and the A67 between Eindhoven and Antwerp, an ANWB spokesperson reports.
Rijkswaterstaat has already closed the highways at a logical point in the Netherlands due to the blockages, so that traffic can still move freely, the spokesperson continues.
