The planned foundation and asphalt works in Vannekensstraat in Oostkamp, which were scheduled to start this week, have been postponed due to predicted rain and storms. The works will now resume next week.

Contractor Verhelst was normally scheduled to start foundation works and the laying of the asphalt base layer in Vannekensstraat this week. Due to the predicted rain and stormy weather conditions, these works are postponed. The asphalting works will take place during the course of next week.
After asphalting, the verges and driveways will be constructed. During these working hours, residences and the provided temporary parking spaces with steel plates will not be accessible. Vehicles must therefore always be parked outside the work zone before 7:30 AM.
The municipality asks for understanding. Questions about the project can be directed to the contractor on-site or to the Public Space department via publiekeruimte@oostkamp.be or 050 819 880.
