Motorways in Belgium

In Belgium, the motorways (Dutch: autosnelwegen; French: autoroutes; German: Autobahnen) are indicated by an A and an E (for European) number. The E numbers are used most often. Roads that are (part of) a ring road around a town or city are mostly indicated by an R number.

Since 1989, all highways are built and maintained by the governments of the three regions (Flanders, Wallonia and Brussels).

For safety on motorways in Belgium,

  • 60% of killed travelers did not wear their seat-belt;
  • 38% of crash are impacted by speed;
  • around 30% of accident occur near or on a motorway exit or entry, and 5% of accidents are in a junction;
  • 19% of drivers were stopped at the time of the accident;
  • 13% of accidents occur in a work zone.[1]
