Following the public inquiry held from May 19 to June 17, the delegated official for Urban Planning and Spatial Development for the Province of Namur, on behalf of the Walloon Government, has issued the necessary urban planning permit. This permit pertains to the removal of the Bouvignes level crossing and the creation of an underpass.
This decision marks a significant milestone for the realization of this major construction project. Procedures related to specifications and public procurement can now be launched in the coming months, with the objective of starting the works by 2028 at the latest. For the City of Dinant, this represents a substantial advancement in terms of mobility and road safety.
This project will also provide an opportunity for the City of Dinant, in collaboration with the SPW, to reconsider the Bouvignes crossing to make it safer, more pleasant, and better valued, in keeping with its heritage.
The City of Dinant wishes to congratulate the services of Infrabel, the SNCB, and the Service Public de Wallonie « Infrastructures » for their excellent collaboration.
