Binderendreef closed from April 6 for construction of railway tunnel
At Binderendreef in Deurne, we are replacing the current railway level crossing with an underpass beneath the tracks. As a result, Binderendreef will be closed from Monday, April 6, until the end of 2027 between the Helmondseweg roundabout and the Industrieweg roundabout.
What will happen?
To construct the tunnel, the area around the level crossing will be set up as a construction site. Excavation work will take place, cables and pipelines will be rerouted, and finally, the tunnel structure will be built.
What does this mean for you?
During the construction period, you will not be able to cross via the level crossing, which may result in longer travel times for some routes. This requires patience from motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians. However, once completed, there will no longer be any waiting times at closed railway barriers, and traffic flow will be permanently improved.
Accessibility and detours
Traffic within Deurne
All homes and businesses will remain accessible during the construction work. Please allow for extra travel time. Before setting off, check the best route for you using, for example, Flitsmeister, Waze, Google Maps, and the ANWB route planner.
Traffic outside Deurne
We aim to minimize disruption in the town centre, surrounding streets, and nearby villages. Traffic that does not need to enter Deurne will be diverted via the N270, N279, and A67. If unsafe situations arise, additional measures will be taken.
