Starting Monday, November 9, the contractor will begin laying cobblestones between the kerbstones and the facades on the Market Square. The works commence near the town hall and will progress towards café de Markt.
The sewer works in Koepoortstraat are moving further towards the church. During these works, above-ground parking spaces for residents along the route remain accessible via the N2 (Staatsbaan). Parking Brasserie Driepunt also remains accessible via the N2. The underground parking Begijnhofplein is accessible for residents and garage owners via Nederstraat, with temporary traffic lights managing traffic flow.
In Generaal de Wittestraat, milling works to remove the existing road surface begin today, Monday, November 9. After milling, a temporary surface will be laid to allow essential traffic. From tomorrow, Tuesday, November 10, archaeological research will start between Doelstraat and Fonteinstraat. One lane will generally remain passable, but the traffic situation may change locally and temporarily depending on the progress and any archaeological findings.
Businesses in the vicinity of Nederstraat and the Markt are preferably accessed via Nederstraat and Raubrandplein. Generaal de Wittestraat should be kept as free as possible for local traffic and customers of the businesses on the street itself. These guidelines help ensure the accessibility of local traders during the works.
The city of Halen thanks all residents, traders, and visitors for their patience and understanding. Together, they are working step by step towards a more beautiful, safer, and pleasant center. More information and updates can be found at www.halen.be/herinrichting-centrum.
