Except that if we follow this calendar, according to the Minister President, “An investment intended for in -depth maintenance of the viaduct Herrmann-Debroux will have to be carried out before the demolition. “ He tempers quickly then: “Uncertainties, in particular budgetary, persist as to the orientations to adopt and planning the various interventions.”
Brussels Mobility, regional agency in charge of the file, also tempers “All these decisions are linked. Maintenance will be necessary according to the date of demolition. Date which must be acted by a government since it takes a budget for this, as for the maintenance. A demolition is obviously quite expensive and it’s not just about breaking everything, you have to make sure that the bridge supports certain machines, for example. “
So there is no visibly active but the timing 2027-2028 seems difficult to achieve. The Brussels deputy Geoffroy Coomans of Brachène (MR), on the initiative of the question on the subject does not believe at all. “It is totally impractical as a timing, which would also explain the evocation of a renovation.”
We suspect that the destruction project, which does not consensus, will face appeals and no permit has yet been required. Brussels Mobility will not give more information. One thing is certain, without rapid demolition, the viaduct must be maintained … before being demolished.
“Afterwards, everything I think I can say without risk that residents and shuttles prefer that the project will be pushed back for a few years, even if a interview is done, to have an final project the best featured and coordinated possible,” concludes the deputy.
Why the Herrmann-Debroux viaduct will not be demolished in 2027 as planned
“I insist on the importance of interregional coordination, continues the Minister President in his response in committee. The organization of work on the viaduct, for example, provides for a circulation scheme aimed at balance between the needs of users and the progress of the site: two incoming bands and an outgoing band in the morning, then two outgoing bands and an incoming band in the evening. Regular communication will be ensured. “
Emergency at the three fountains
The neighboring viaduct, that of the three fountains, will also be the subject of an upcoming “urgent” interview, according to the Minister President (asbestos removal, renovation of concrete and dilation joints). “”Work similar to what should be carried out on that the viaduct Herrmann-Debroux,” specifies Brussels Mobility.
For three fountains, operations are scheduled in the first half of 2026 with obviously an impact on mobility. We should go from 2 times 3 bands to 2 times 2 bands, note the regional agency. But here too, nothing is stopped and everything must still be specified in the preparing for the site. “

New joints and a makeover for concrete, but no work on the flow of water. However, we know that the waters from this road, with their potential pollutants, land almost directly in the classified ponds of the cloister cloister located below. “”With regard to the treatment of runoff from the three fountains viaduct, Brussels Mobility is preparing to submit a planning permit application for the implementation of a device, ” assures the Minister President.
