ITTERBEEK - In a building site of VALENS - INFRABEL in rue Herdebeek in Itterbeek, four cranes and a number of excavators were seriously damaged by fire. The fire began at about 4am and it is probably a case of arson. Train services were not influenced, but work on the Express Régionale network will have to be temporarily suspended.
[VALENS, which belongs to the Eiffage group, is participating in the construction of the new detention centre for illegal immigrants at Steenokkerzeel. [INFRABEL, is the company that manages the infrastructure of the Belgian rail network]
