Tram lines Rechteroever

Tram line 11 is running again on its previous route. Tram lines 3, 5, 9, and 15 will follow a new route on Rechteroever during the works.

What?

During the tunnel renovation, there are no trams running between P+R Melsele and Opera metro station. The 4 tram lines that normally also run on Linkeroever (3, 5, 9, and 15) follow a new route on Rechteroever during the works:

Tram lines 3 and 15 have been merged into the new (temporary) tram line A3.
Tram lines 5 and 9 have been merged into the new (temporary) tram line A9.

Why the letter A in the name? It obviously refers to 'Antwerp,' but it also indicates that it's an Alternative tram line.

Tram line A3 (merging tram lines 3 and 15)

Tram lines 3 and 15 have been temporarily merged.
Tram line A3 follows a new route between P+R Merksem and P+R Boechout.
The new tram line no longer heads towards Opera metro station but will connect Astrid and Diamant metro stations.

Modern trams are being used, capable of carrying more passengers.
