During the harvest, road traffic increases due to the intensive use of large agricultural machinery. The municipality of Beernem emphasizes that mud on the road can be unavoidable, especially in bad weather, and asks road users to adapt their speed and driving style accordingly.
Farmers are urged to place warning signs when mud is present on the road. These signs are provided free of charge by the municipality's mobility department. It is also important to clean a dirty road surface as quickly as possible, for example by spraying it clean. Wearing a high-visibility vest is recommended for personal safety.
Anyone noticing mud on a road without a traffic sign can report it via www.meldpuntwegen.be or by calling the free number 1700. For more information, contact the mobility department at mobiliteit@beernem.be or by phone at 050 28 91 26.
