Which period is affected
On 24 September AWV announced R0 repairs around Wemmel and Asse from the evening of 28 September to the morning of 3 October. One lane remains available at night on the affected section; daytime traffic remains open. Works are split between the outer and inner ring, so check your direction.
Morning delivery starts the night before
Editorial advice: if a truck must reach the warehouse’s first shift, check when it approaches the ring. A road open in the morning does not exclude a delay on the preceding overnight leg. Agree arrival tolerance and rebooking procedures with the consignee before dispatch.
For a multi-stop trip, recalculate stop order and site operating hours. Do not move the entire plan to an earlier departure without checking the driver’s schedule and waiting location. The carrier should resolve these points for the actual assignment.
When to update the route
Check the current AWV plan and traffic situation the day before collection and again before departure. Resurfacing depends on weather, so a saved screenshot of the initial schedule is not a substitute for a fresh check. Give the driver a confirmed plan including ring direction.
When comparing a diversion, include the complete journey to the warehouse, truck-suitable roads and additional stops. There is no universal delay estimate for every shipment; match the assessment to the date, direction and actual delivery point.
Frequently asked questions
Is this a complete overnight ring closure?
No. The announced plan retains one lane on the affected sections. Confirm direction and the current schedule before travelling.
