N34 road (Belgium)

The N34 is a Belgian road running along the North Sea coast. It is a major coastal route, connecting various towns and tourist destinations. The N34 stretches from the French border near De Panne, through towns like Oostende, Knokke-Heist, and ultimately to the Dutch border near Cadzand-Bad.

The road is characterized by its proximity to the sea, offering views of beaches, dunes, and harbors. Due to its coastal location, the N34 is a popular route for tourists and locals alike, particularly during the summer months. This popularity can lead to congestion, especially in the built-up areas along the coast.

The N34 is a two-lane road for much of its length, although sections may have additional lanes in urban areas. It is an important transportation artery for both local traffic and long-distance travel along the Belgian coast. The road also provides access to various recreational activities, including cycling, hiking, and water sports. Maintaining the N34 is crucial for tourism and the local economy of the coastal region.
