Due to the 2021 World cycling championships taking place in our beloved city of Leuven, various streets in and around Leuven will be closed or difficult to reach.

However, the organisation has informed us that the streets accessible to local traffic are also accessible to our patients. They do recommend that you have proof of your appointment (for example in the form of an email that you can show on your mobile phone) with you so that when you pass a police station you can show that you are indeed local. It is also best to navigate using Google Maps or Waze, as these systems will always be up to date with the temporary traffic measures.
