20 years after fatal traffic accident, neighborhood (once again) calls for redesign of N70 in Waasmunster

Residents of Waasmunster are urging for the redesign of the N70 road, marking the 20th anniversary of Tom Guillemaere's tragic death in a traffic accident. Family and locals gathered to remember him and reiterated the need for infrastructure improvements to enhance safety. Despite previous promises from the Roads and Traffic Agency for upgrades, plans have not materialized, leaving the dangerous road conditions unchanged. Mayor Jurgen Bauwens emphasized the importance of traffic safety, especially for young families in the area, as children frequently cross the busy road. Recent accidents highlight the urgent need for action.
