Flanders eliminates absurdity around buurtwegen
After years of negotiations, the Flemish majority parties N-VA, CD&V and Open Vld ready with the decree of municipality roads, that the problems with the old neighborhood - or voetwegen need to fix. Though that often no longer exist or be used, cause they are in a lot of files years of delays, such as in that of the Eurostadion. That stands today in The Interest of the province of Limburg.

The network of near - and voetwegen was in 1841, captured in the Atlas of Buurtwegen. Today there are many who do not weigh more, but they still have the force of law. The Flemish majority parties have now a new decree ready that two goals should serve.

first, the procedure for a municipal road system to abolish simplified. So in the future will be the abolition can be processed in a spatial execution plan or allotment plan. Buurtwegen that are no longer used, can also not become time-barred. Today that still happens automatically, after 30 years, but that led in many cases to legal discussions about whether or not the statute of limitations.

More powers for municipalities

Thanks to the new decree, the municipality of 'administrative penalties' imposed and own the technical service commitment to the barricade to open it. The costs can then be passed on to the owner.
