Busiest morning rush hour of the year so far with more that 300km of jams on the region’s highways | VRT NWS: news

It was a particularly arduous drive into work for many on Tuesday morning. The morning rush hour was the busiest so far this year and at around 8.30am there were more than 300 kilometres of traffic jams on the region’s motorways and trunk roads. Peter Bruyninckx of the Flemish Traffic Centre says that the remarkable thing is that it was not a major accident that caused the traffic congestion on Tuesday morning.
