Deinze: Works Leernsesteenweg
On behalf of the Agency for Roads and Traffic (AWV), the Leernsesteenweg (N466) in Deinze will be completely redeveloped. The work will start at the beginning of 2026 and will last approximately one and a half years. Since it involves long-term work, De Lijn will thoroughly adjust the routes of several bus lines. The new routes will take effect on January 5, 2026, just before the start of the work on January 19, 2026.
