Due to damage caused by walkers, scooters, and cars: Mayor Pajottegem asks to stay out of the village park under construction

The mayor of Pajottenland urges residents to stay out of the new village park in Herne until its completion, as it has already suffered damage from walkers, mopeds, and cars. The park, located on the former Markevallei school site, features walking paths, a dog park, a playground, water retention areas, and an orchard. Despite ongoing construction, some residents have been ignoring barriers and causing harm to the park. The mayor emphasizes the need for patience, asking the community to allow the contractor to finish the work and for nature to develop. The park is expected to open around New Year's, coinciding with the annual residents' gathering.
