Detour routes will be in place during the closure:
➡️ Direction Antwerp: Traffic will be diverted at exit 15 onto the N16, then via the N70 towards Beveren and Melsele, and further along the N419 back to the E17 at the Kruibeke interchange.
➡️ Direction Ghent (Gent): Drivers will be redirected at exit 16 onto the N419 and then via regional roads in the Temse area, returning to the E17 at Sint-Niklaas.
➡️ The Haasdonk exit and entry (15a) will be unavailable during this time.
The Flemish Traffic Centre recommends planning your route in advance. Information signs on the E40 and E19 motorways will advise avoiding the affected stretch of the E17 and using alternative routes.
