Beneath the bustling city of Brussels lies a hidden world. This world is one of tunnels, including the Tunnel Trône – Troontunnel. The Tunnel Trône, or Troontunnel as it is known in Dutch, sits on the R20, part of Brussels’ inner ring road. It passes under the Kunstlaan and Regentlaan, a stone’s throw from the Royal Palace. Opened in 1967, the Tunnel Trône isn’t just a passageway. It’s a vital artery of the city. It has two separate tubes, each carrying two lanes of traffic, with no emergency lanes. Imagine the constant flow of vehicles, approximately 56,900 per day in 2009, coursing beneath the city streets. The Tunnel Trône, like many of Brussels’ tunnels, has faced its share of challenges. It has undergone renovations, requiring closures, sometimes even during the day, to address issues like ceiling repairs and lighting upgrades. These renovations are a testament to the ongoing efforts to maintain the city’s infrastructure and ensure its safety. The Tunnel Trône stands as a testament to Brussels’ complex network of underground pathways. It serves as a vital link, facilitating the daily commute for thousands while also highlighting the ongoing challenges of maintaining urban infrastructure.
