Connected to Europe’s road network
West Flanders has a planned and efficient road and motorway infrastructure offering a great many advantages to the businesses located in the region. Its three motorways (E40, E403 and E17) are directly linked to those of France, Germany, Luxembourg and the Netherlands. The British motorways can be easily reached as well using the ferry or the Channel tunnel.
Road transport is a vital element of many business operations and West Flanders ensures that its network meets business needs. Because of the region’s central location within the European market, and having one of the highest-density road networks in the world, logistics companies and distribution centres located in West Flanders can efficiently transport goods by road to most European markets within 24 hours (e.g. Amsterdam is just 248 km away, Paris 210 km and London 200 km).
