Driving in Hannuit

With a user-friendly road network, getting in and around Hannuit is incredibly easy. The N64 and N80 provide direct routes into the downtown area, offering convenient connections to other destinations throughout Wallonia and Flanders. European route E40 is also only 3 km to the north, meaning you can venture further afield if you're planning a road trip. Although the heart of Hannuit is served by a beltway, most of the downtown area is pedestrianized and bicycle-friendly. As such, you'll need to be wary of tight speed regulations and ensure you're giving cyclists plenty of space.

If you're new to driving in Belgium, you'll want to get to grips with the rules of the road. Here, motorists drive on the right-hand side. When passing, you need to do so on the left. If you're passing a moped or cyclist, you'll need to maintain a distance of at least one meter. However, passing isn't always an option. Generally speaking, you can't pass at intersections or level crossings. Hannuit is served by extensive public transit, with streetcars and buses always given priority.

In Hannuit, parking is easy enough to find. However, free on-street parking is rare. An E1 sign means that parking is forbidden, while E9a signs mean that parking is allowed. Most attractions in the city have large pay and display parking lots. Metered parking is available in the downtown area, but you can expect to pay a premium for using it. Many attractions offer pay-and-ride options, letting you pay a small fee for parking before completing your journey on public transit like buses and streetcars.

Like the Netherlands, Belgium's speed limits are fairly low for European countries. If you're driving through a residential area, you'll need to keep your speed under 20 km/h. This rises to 50 km/h in built-up areas but can be as low as 30 km/h in school zones. Outside of built-up areas, the speed limit is 90 km/h. However, this only applies to Wallonia. If you drive into the Flemish region, you'll need to drop your speed below 70 km/h. Speed limits are more relaxed when driving on freeways. On most expressways, a speed limit of 120 km/h is in place.
