Traffic safety at the roundabout near the former Spillebad in Roeselare is under renewed scrutiny after a tragic accident involving a cyclist. Despite recent improvements aimed at enhancing safety, a fatal collision occurred early on 2025-06-24 17:54:00, raising urgent questions about the effectiveness of current measures.

The Flemish Agency for Roads and Traffic (Agentschap Wegen en Verkeer, AWV) is now investigating whether further adjustments can be made to prevent similar incidents. How can a recently upgraded roundabout still pose such risks? What more can be done to protect vulnerable road users in this busy area?
As local authorities seek answers, the community watches closely, hoping for swift action that ensures safer travel for cyclists and motorists alike.
Is the current design of the roundabout sufficient to protect cyclists? The recent accident suggests otherwise, prompting a critical evaluation of traffic flow and safety features. Key points to consider include:
- The effectiveness of recent modifications in reducing accidents
- Potential design flaws or visibility issues at the roundabout
- The need for enhanced cyclist-specific safety measures, such as clearer signage or dedicated lanes
- Community feedback and involvement in future planning
Moving forward, it is crucial that AWV collaborates with local stakeholders to implement targeted solutions. Continuous monitoring and community engagement will be key to making the Roeselare roundabout safer for everyone. Can these efforts prevent future tragedies?
