No solution for Brussels tunnels

brussels - A solution to the lack of traffic tunnels in Brussels is still far away. Consultation between the federal government with the leadership of Brussels, Wallonia and Flanders on Wednesday was inconclusive.

The state of the tunnels in the Belgian capital is very substandard. During the weekend a piece of concrete came loose in one of the tunnels from the west leads to the center of Brussels. Another tunnel will certainly be a year closed for renovation. The tunnels are very important to the traffic somewhat good to lead by Brussels, otherwise the city quickly becomes blocked by traffic jams.

Brussels wants the renovation of the tunnels not only pay but refuse with strong wording Wallonia and Flanders to pick up part of the bill. Brussels wanted to own competence, it must also refurbish the lot, so it sounded to Walloon and Flemish side. There is much criticism of the lack of action by the Brussels government. Brussels,, just do not know what it will do, '' it sounded, even after consultation.

,, The debt at the Brussels government impose a time when consultations should lead concrete solutions in the interest of all citizens, which raises questions about the willingness of the federal government with respect to all Belgians , responded Brussels Prime Minister Rudi Vervoort afterwards.

For a plan to go after the refit tolls to use the Brussels tunnels is very little enthusiasm.

Until concrete steps Wednesday it did not come. There should be done more research and ideas are developed.
