Works in progress

New tram exit via chaussée de Haecht/Haachtsesteenweg in Haren

Works resume at the end of January 2026

Published on

STIB-MIVB continues to invest in reliable and future-proof public transport. That's why the Haren depot is getting an additional tram exit. This way trams can leave the depot more easily and transport services remain guaranteed. The surrounding public space is also being redeveloped.

Where and when will the works take place in Haren?

From the end of January until May 2026 we're installing new tram tracks in rue du Planeur/Zweefvliegtuigstraat and rue de l’Aéronef/Luchtschipstraat, and we connect the tram tracks to boulevard Léopold III/Leopold III-laan. On chaussée de Haecht/Haachtsesteenweg the cycle lane next to the tram tracks is being renewed.

Renovation of the streets

Once the tracks are installed, rue du Planeur/Zweefvliegtuigstraat and rue de l’Aéronef/Luchtschipstraat are renovated with special attention to the comfort and security of all road users. 

Traffic and accessibility

Traffic on chaussée de Haecht / Haachtsesteenweg will return to two-way circulation from Friday evening, 27 February.

From Monday morning, 2 March, rue du Planeur / Zweefvliegtuigstraat will reopen to local traffic via chaussée de Haecht / Haachtsesteenweg. Rue de l’Aéronef / Luchtschipstraat will be closed to all traffic. Rue de la Fusée / Raketstraat will become a dead end at the junction with rue de l’Aéronef / Luchtschipstraat. Rue de Strasbourg / Straatsburgstraat will be accessible via chaussée de Haecht / Haachtsesteenweg and rue du Planeur / Zweefvliegtuigstraat.
