A new 9-meter bridge made from tree trunks now connects the slow roads in Rotselaar and Tremelo as of April 15, 2025. This bridge spans the Laak River and fills a crucial gap for walkers between the two municipalities. “This was the missing link for hikers,” said Bert De Wit (CD&V), mayor of Tremelo. “Previously, walkers had to detour along the busy Veldonkstraat.”
