The future Mouscron police station presented to local residents: work starts on 9 January

Brigitte Aubert and Philippe Decabooter wanted to address the concerns. “We signed up to shave the old Speedy which was in the Place de la Gare and then take the parking. 21 places are planned, of which 3 for people with reduced mobility during the works.“

Renovation of Avenue du Château

How to jointly manage the construction site of the station and that of the future police station? The issue has also been raised, leading to fears of a turbulent few months for the neighborhood’s residents.

Some present at the meeting mentioned the problems of flooding on the Avenue du Château. “Everything will be put back to new once these works are finished, but we have to carry out one project at a time, starting from the Police Headquarters site. So, we will redevelop the road. We can’t do everything at the same time, but we will carry out our plans for the comfort of all people living in this area.“, explains Marie-Hélène Vanelstraete. Another desire expressed by some present, to whiz on the avenue du Château, a very busy axis. The Mouscronnoise authorities promise to be vigilant on this matter.
