Close to the historic centre of Brussels, 920m of tramway leaves rue Royale to serve the central station and museums. Streetscape development inspired by French projects, the pedestrianization of the Place du Marché au Bois and the creation of one-way streets calms the neighbourhood, and the generous ground surfaces in Hainaut blue stone install and celebrate these new uses in continuity with the Brussels townscape.
