Antwerp: bus disruption due to E313 works

From Friday evening, April 10, to Thursday morning, April 16, Agentschap Wegen en Verkeer (AWV) will renovate two highway bridges on the E313. During this period, the E313 will be completely closed in both directions between the connection with the Antwerp ring road and the exit and entrance ramps at the Wommelgem roundabout. Several bus lines will follow an adjusted route.
