The Chaussée de Charleroi (N29) in Fleurus is continuing its transformation to favor cycling and soft mobility. A new cycle lane will soon complete the link between Charleroi Brussels-South Airport, Vieux-Campinaire, and the town center of Fleurus. Specific traffic measures will accompany this construction project, which starts on October 7, 2026.
This new cycling infrastructure, with work scheduled to end on March 31, 2027, extends the existing cycle path between the airport and Vieux-Campinaire. It will allow cyclists to travel in both directions and will eventually contribute to creating a cycle network connecting the airport to the town centers of Fleurus and Farciennes, notably via the Farciennes/Fleurus economic activity park.
To ensure the smooth progress of work on the N29 section between the E42 and the Vieux-Campinaire roundabout, several traffic adjustments will be in place from October 7, 2026, to March 31, 2027. Stopping and parking will be prohibited, speed will be limited to 30 km/h, and traffic will be reduced to one lane per direction, diverted to the right of the central median in the direction of Fleurus. Traffic may use the parking area and the roadway depending on the construction's progress. Access for residents and businesses will be maintained where possible. Overtaking on the left will be forbidden for horse-drawn vehicles or vehicles with more than two wheels. Vehicles over 3.5 tonnes will not be allowed on this section, except for local service, and a specific detour will be set up for them. Access to the N29 from Avenue du Marquis, as well as the exit to this avenue, will also be prohibited.
With these developments, Fleurus continues to expand its cycle links to connect its various neighborhoods, economic hubs, and leisure areas. These infrastructures will eventually offer Fleurus residents more options for cycling, whether for daily commutes, trips to shops, or accessing green and recreational spaces, thereby encouraging the use of bicycles.
