For Cyclists

⚠️Bicycle path west side Pontweg closed

The cycle path along Pontweg, direction De Koog, will be closed in parts until the end of May. This concerns the cycle path between the Gerritslanderdijkje exit and De Koog. Cyclists will have to temporarily cross at the places where work is being carried out and use the bike path on the other side of the road. In the places where cyclists have to cross, motorists are allowed to drive less fast, at a maximum speed of 30 km/hour. This will be indicated by signs. This temporary measure is necessary because the water main is being replaced at the site.

⚠️Witteweg closed

Untill the end of April , the cycle path along Witteweg will be closed. Cyclists will have to use the roadway at the site. This temporary closure of the bike path is necessary due to work on an electricity cable.
