During the night of Saturday, October 10th to Sunday, October 11th, the Agency for Roads and Traffic will move the arch bridge from the construction site along the E40 to its final position over the highway. The E40 will be completely closed in both directions, from Saturday at 8 PM until Sunday in the early afternoon.
Road users are advised to avoid the immediate vicinity of the construction site during this period and postpone their travel if possible. Traffic will be diverted via the N2 (Leuven-Brussels road) and the E314.
Regarding the on- and off-ramps: the two on-ramps to the E40 in Bertem will remain open during the full closure, allowing traffic from Bertem to access the highway in both directions towards Brussels and towards Leuven/Liège. However, the off-ramps in Bertem will be closed for the entire duration. Drivers coming from Brussels who normally take the Bertem exit must leave the highway earlier and follow the indicated diversion route. Traffic from Leuven/Liège will also not be able to exit the E40 via Bertem during the closure.
