Extension of works on the N975
** Extension of works until Friday 11 April **
As previously announced, Wallonia Public Service (SPW) and the Municipality of Florennes have had to carry out work on their water piping along the N975 to resolve problems with water in the subsoil affecting our trench. This problem was preventing the good-quality compaction of our trench required for acceptance of the N975 road by SPW.
