Woluwe-Saint-Lambert does not want to hear about Good Move proposals

Brussels, (Brussels Morning)- After Anderlecht and Jette, among others, Woluwe-Saint-Lambert is yet another municipality that is struggling in the roll-out of the regional mobility plan Good Move. A consultancy has put various scenarios on the table for a loophole in the municipality. “The college refuses proposals that are implausible to our residents.”

Good Move must ensure car-free neighbourhoods, in the first place through circulation plans that must be introduced district by district – in Good Move’s jargon the loopholes are. Cut-through traffic should be kept out of the neighbourhoods by means of one-way streets, traffic filters and loops. Roodebeek should become one of the fifty Good Move loopholes in Woluwe-Saint-Lambert. Brussels Mobility appointed consultancy firm Tridee to investigate various scenarios for this mesh.

According to the college of Woluwe-Saint-Lambert, there are several problems with the work that Tridee has delivered. “The participatory project that the Region has set up brought together barely forty local residents, a figure that is not representative of the number of residents in the district,” said Mayor Olivier Maingain (Défi) and Alderman for the Environment Grégory Matgen (Défi) in a statement. press release. “As a result, the consultancy’s proposals are based on theories that are far removed from the reality experienced by local residents.”

‘Real consultation’

“On the axis of the De Broquevillelaan and the Paul Hymanslaan, the engineering office proposes to close the central reservation for crossing cars. As a result, a car driver coming from Montgomery who wants to enter a side road of the De Broquevillelaan would have to make a big detour, by descending to the Paul Hymanslaan, and then driving back up,” the college writes. “The college cannot accept such a thing.”

According to the Commission, it is impossible to continue to cooperate with the consultancy and the Region on this basis. “The college refuses proposals that are implausible for our residents,” it sounds. “We will continue our work in the field of mobility based on experience and will propose our projects based on real consultation with our residents.”
