A18 motorway (Belgium)
The A18 motorway is a Belgian motorway located in the Wallonia region. It currently connects the A602 near Mons to the French border near Erquelinnes, forming part of the European route E420. The motorway is relatively short compared to other Belgian motorways and primarily serves to facilitate traffic flow between Mons and the French border, as well as connecting to other regional roads.
Construction of the A18 was completed in phases over several years. Precise dates for construction commencement and completion are not readily available in publicly accessible sources. The motorway has seen upgrades and maintenance throughout its lifespan to ensure traffic safety and efficiency.
The A18 passes through primarily rural areas, with a number of towns and villages along its route. Specific details about services available along the motorway, such as rest stops or gas stations, are not comprehensively documented in readily accessible sources. Further research is required to provide a more comprehensive list of services.
Future plans for expansion or significant alteration of the A18 are not publicly known. Any potential future projects would likely be announced through official Belgian government channels.
