De Lijn Flex in the province of West Flanders

In the province of West Flanders there are four different major regions where flexible transport is active: Brugge Region, Kortrijk Region, Midwest Region and Westhoek Region. Where and when does the flexbus run in your region? Find out on this page.

Brugge Region

Brugge Region flex area

This flex area includes the municipalities of Beernem, Blankenberge, Brugge, Damme, Jabbeke, Knokke-Heist, Oostkamp, Zedelgem and Zuienkerke. The old dial-a-bus service is being extended there, so that from now on you can use flexible transport in all municipalities within the Brugge Region flex area. The flexbus will also operate there too at a later date.

You should therefore be sure to check the flex area page to see which stops you can take the flexbus at

The flexbus is on the road in this region on the following days and at the following times:

DayTime
from Monday to Fridayfrom 6.00 to 22.30
Saturdayfrom 8.00 to 22.30
Sundays and public holidaysfrom 9.00 to 22.30

Night-time flex area on the periphery of Brugge

The evening network in Brugge has been redesigned, and as a result some villages are no longer served at later times by regular lines. We offer a solution for these travellers until 22.30 with flexible transport from the Brugge Region flex area.

On Friday and Saturday evenings we also provide extra-late flexible transport in these areas – through until 2.30 the following morning. 

You should therefore be sure to check the flex area pages to see which stops you can take the flexbus at

Tip!

  • Plan your entire journey with the De Lijn Flex-app and make your reservation for the flexbus. Your regular bus line will take you to a stop where you can transfer to a flexbus that will take you to your final stop within these areas.

  • For example, do you want to go from Brugge to Hertsberge? Then you can take regular line 20 to Oostkamp and transfer there to the Moerbrugge – Hertsberge – Veldegem night-time flexbus. 

  • It’s important to register your entire journey in the De Lijn Flex-app, so that we take optimal account of the transfer between bus and flexbus.
