War bomb found in Gent-Sint-Pieters station: major disruption to train traffic expected | Inland

The bomb is located 300 meters from the platforms on the Brussels side. “We have to wait until the DOVO demining service has been on site for the dismantling. It is expected around 5:30 am,” Infrabel reports.

Trains will be abolished, some trains will depart from Melle and certain trains will be diverted locally via the Kortrijk-Denderleeuw-Brussels axis. The situation is further monitored and managed in real time.

Between Deinze and Gent-Dampoort, a replacement bus service is being established by the NMBS. Train passengers can also use the regular bus service of De Lijn between Gent-Sint-Pieters and Gent-Dampoort.
