Drivers travelling to the Netherlands this spring will face new traffic restrictions on the A16 highway, as the Drechttunnel Tunnel will be closed. These changes will primarily affect drivers heading to Rotterdam, Antwerp, or France.
As is the case every year, the Drechttunnel Tunnel will be closed for maintenance work—during the closure, drivers will only be able to use one lane of the tunnel, so they may encounter traffic jams and longer travel times.
The closures will take place on the following dates:
