In Halve Steenstraat and Grote Parijsstraat, the final touches are being made to the sewerage system. This will be followed by the last house connections and street gullies, after which the construction of the new roadway will commence. Ditches, verges, and driveways will also be finished. The works are expected to continue until late 2026.
In Spiltstraat, the new sewerage system now reaches the school. Houses are being connected, starting with those on the odd-numbered side, followed by the even-numbered houses. A temporary gravel surface will be laid for cyclists and pedestrians. Pedestrians should follow the signage and walk along the odd-numbered side. Subsequently, the tree bunkers will be completed, and the construction of the new road will continue, including curbs, a first asphalt layer, cycle paths, footpaths, and the finishing of driveways. More information on further planning and potential disruptions will follow later.
In Humbeeksebaan, work on the ditches will continue until end of December. First, the section from the vicinity of house number 117 towards Spiltstraat will be addressed. This will be followed by the stretch between Vekeputtenweg and Halve Steenstraat.
Aquafin has also started the construction of the small-scale wastewater treatment plant Zemst-Kesterbeek. This will temporarily lead to extra construction traffic in Grote Parijsstraat. The planning of all works remains dependent on the weather and unforeseen circumstances.
