The strong gusts, potentially reaching 80 to 100 km/h, could cause branches or trees to fall, posing a danger to walkers, cyclists, and other users. For your safety, you are asked not to use the RAVeL during this closure and to respect any barriers and signage put in place.
In the face of the storm, the municipality reminds citizens of some safety tips: secure outdoor items that could blow away (garden furniture, bins, decorations, etc.), close doors and windows and ensure shutters are secured, avoid wooded areas and parks due to the risk of falling branches or trees, limit travel to what is strictly necessary and adapt driving to weather conditions, avoid parking vehicles under trees or near objects that could fall, and never approach fallen electrical cables, reporting any dangerous situation. It is also advised to stay informed about weather developments through official channels.
In case of immediate danger, contact 112. For non-urgent fire department intervention related to bad weather, use the website www.1722.be.
The Commune of Braives thanks citizens for their understanding and cooperation, and urges them to be cautious.
