According to the Brussels-Capital/Ixelles police zone, the demonstration will pass through central Brussels between 11:00 and 13:00. Motorists are being urged to avoid the area as much as possible during the protest.
Traffic disruption is expected around Carrefour de l’Europe, Boulevard de l’Impératrice, Boulevard de Berlaimont, Rue de la Banque, Montagne de l’Oratoire, Rue des Lignes, Place du Congrès, Rue du Congrès and Place Surlet de Chokier.
Anyone needing to travel through central Brussels on Wednesday morning is advised to allow extra time and, if possible, use an alternative route or public transport.
Police said they will monitor the traffic situation and divert vehicles where necessary.
