Putteke Winter causes traffic chaos in Harelbeke

Especially during the first two hours of ‘Putteke Winter’, the roads around De Gavers were completely closed. The traffic controllers directed motorists to edge car parks that were already full, which created a traffic jam in the vicinity of the provincial domain. The organization and police were well prepared to manage traffic, but they had not expected such a surprise. Fortunately, there were also many visitors who followed the call to come by bicycle.
