Works on the ‘Grote Weide’ floodplain have started

In Halle, construction has begun on the controlled floodplain at the ‘Grote Weide’. This new buffer basin is being built on behalf of the city of Halle and the province of Flemish Brabant. These works will provide better protection against flooding for the surrounding residential streets, including Poststraat, Victor Baetensstraat, Auguste Demaeghtlaan, Beertsestraat and parts of Bergensesteenweg.
