Winter weather: gloom on roads, piloting Walker limited

Code orange on the Belgian road network, then you know it’s going to be a tough morning. The entire Flemish road network has been severely hampered by snowfall all morning. Around Antwerp, the closure of the Jan De Vostunnel and an accident on the Wilrijk viaduct in particular caused a lot of traffic jams. On the E313, several exits were closed to traffic and near Herentals Industrie the motorway towards Lummen was blocked by an overturned truck around 11.30 a.m. This did not cause any serious accidents for the time being, according to the Flemish Traffic Centre, but rather minor slides.
